From what I hear, dont get a test pipe. It actually slows your car down or something like that, Just keep your Stock Cat and youll be fine

Even when redoing my entire exhaust for High-flow? I thought the stock Cat isalot more restrictive than a free flowing Test-Pipe

You lose in tq and gain in hp.
IIRC, +2hp...-2tq (that figure could be off a little)

You are correct...it is higher flowing than a stock cat.

Stealth Test Pipe

2 1/2" exhaust pipe shoved through cat. At least it looks like you have your cat on even if it won't pass emisisons.

...Nice! I'm glad they don't do visual inspections on OBD-II Maximas here in Texas.

In florida, the only thing we have to do for emissions is send money in the mail, and the then they send back an approved sticker to put on your license plate.

^ You can get one a lot cheaper. Call up warpspeedperformance, I think they sell one for like 30-40 dollars.
