Powergains from Hi Flow cat ?
Anyone have a high or free flow cat from either random tec or the new budget one ? Did you notice any good power gains from it ? Im getting a Y pipe soon , and i have a Greddy cat back, but how much would the Catt help , if at all , when combined with those ?

this has been posted about lots... but here is a summery...
a new high flow cat is better than an old (60K miles or more) stock cat
a new stock cat is much better than a old stock cat
a new high flow cat is almost the same as (possibly .5 HP) better than a new stock cat
a new high flow cat is cheaper than a new stock cat

Hollowed cats & test pipes do not give much if any gains unless you are putting down massive power.
I run 100 shot NOS and i havent gained anything from stock cat vs hollowed out R/T cat. All this mod really does for us is gives us louder exhaust and gives some people that egg-foul odor.

From everything I have heard....these statements are a direct hit.
