I was thinking about this mod. Is it worth it? What kind of power increases will i get? Thanks

well, looking at al the mods you have, it's the only thing left not modded in the exhaust....

The gains were not huge when I put mine on. I already had a y-pipe though. It helped a little in the high end. Since you have a GREDDY catback already, it may help you out a bit more. I still have the stock b-pipe and muffler.

nope... no problems. Just get the cat and then go to either pep-boys or home depot and pick up some grade 8 steel bolts and nuts to mount the thing. You may need new exhaust gaskets, but I just reused mine.

Yeah, you got the stock exhaust though. I am not sure if it will need special fitting from the greddy. Oh well, i will see how it goes. Thanks for the help.

It might help on the high-end with other exhaust mods.
Otherwise, don't expect to feel any real difference.

Doesn't matter.... the mounting bracket on the cat is universal for the most part. It should fit a lot of bolt configurations.
