Nikk, ask Paris if you can have his Cat since it's already gone. We can just knock out the remaining cat materials and turn it into a straight pipe.

i read that gutted cats are actually a very bad idea...they because of all the open space it makes too much turbulent force or something like that.

You lose torque when you add a midpipe so if there's turbulence, it means that there's a very small amount of back pressure building up. It's a lot less pressure than what the CAT has so you'll still have "some" torque left.

any torque gains from cat/no cat must be negligible at best...exhaust isn't a jet engine

midpipe could get you 10hp on a dyno. 10hp might be a small amount but it's one of the best bang for the buck mods as far as $$$ to hp ratio

I think the best bang for the buck is the throttle body bypass. All it costs is a little over ten buckaroos.
