Default Cats swap to random tech??

I have JBA shorties and a borla exhaust on there now. See sig for other mods, the question is how much gain would I see if I went with random techs catalytic over the stock.......I agree it will be more but how much more compared to the price that I'd have to pay dearly for?

I have shorties, with random stock replacement cats and I didn't feel any difference from the stock GM cats. Sound change but thats about it..

Go for Carsound cats instead. Much cheaper. :yesnod: Same performance.

:iagree: Except Carsound has better performance. see: http://www.ls1.com/forums/showthread...t+Flow+Numbers

Usually people have to use the RT bullets due to space issues. I have heard some have found other, cheaper bullet cats from C5 performance parts (SLP maybe? - can't remember).
