Will a Hi flo cat add any extra power to my 96? My mods are Stillen intake, Y-pipe, and a Dynomax muffler. The intake, and especially the Y-pipe made decent power. The muffler on the other hand, only added a deeper exaust note. At 71000 miles the car runs great, and has been trouble free so far.

Depends-->

If the cat is the exact same pipe dia and your stock one is okay, then no, not much power gain. But I believe the RT cats are slightly larger and match the Cattman Y a little better, theremore slight gains can be achieved. At least for the 3-gens this is the case. If you have a Stillen Y, your on your own.

The Y-pipe fit perfectly to the stock cat, so the RT cat should fit fine. My friend has one on his 91 240sx, and recomended I get one. I just need to know if anyone has one on their Max and recomends it.
