People who dislike cat's don't run them. 15-20whp and tq for 100bucks, are you kidding me?

What about vice-versa? I'm going from highflow cat to a testpipe. Retune necessary?

Thanks

^^ Nah...
I gained 2mph in the 1/4 just by switching out from HFC to TP.
No retune.

You guys are right. Since I already sold my TP I didn't really have a way to test it. Curiosity got the best of me and I bit the bullet and finally bought another testpipe just to test it. It WAS the HFC causing the issue because once I swapped back to the TP it felt like the car just woke up and became a beast again.

That extra grip is gonna help save your skin some day. If more G-force is required then I say shop for a green or a GT35r. That's what I would do!

Power is fine but I was just a little turned off that I lost so much power by swapping a HFC to a TP.
