Which is better? I will going the supercharger route soon. So, is the test pipe a better way to go for the supercharger? The RT cat that I ordered just came in. I haven't put it on yet because someone suggested to me that a test pipe is better suited for the supercharger. Any thoughts?

Today's cats
are built pretty damn good. To be honest, for an POSSIBLE extra HP or a pound of torque, you will have a test pipe which will pollute the enviroment, make you pass out in your garage, give you carbon monoxide poising when you drive with your windows up, and have your car smell like rotton eggs (sulphur)! Talk about a chick magnet.
Just put on the RT. You arent going to loose gobs of power. IF anything just get a bypass switch for racing. The enviroment, your body, and hot chicks will thank you in the future.

Hm...I almost forgot the bad smell. My windows are usually rolled up though. I do agree that since I already have the RT cat, I might as well put that on. If I didn't have the RT cat, that's another story. Problem now is I probably have to by a few nuts/bolts from the Nissan dealer. I read on Cheston's site that you need extra nuts/bolts.
