Re: x-pipe and not cat's (WRK CAR)
Mitch,
Gary here I have minre of and Love it. It sounds Mean, so Mean I had to change from Corsa Indies to the Touring cause the Indies were Way Too Loud.
If you tune your car you will GAIN soem HP and a lot of TQ for sure!!! People who loose hp/tq is because they don't tune the car and it runs rich sometimes.
Now you might be in line with me. When you get a 7.68 in the 1/8 we'll talk. :D
Really thatis cool Mitch, I like the fact that you never give up and always keep Going for it. Your all action! I talk about stuff and sometimes never do it, but you usually do it :cheers:
Now what about the Nitrous who is getting it 1st,,,me or you? I am still niot sure about the Gas??? I want to see fi I can get an 11 without it 1st :D
The Bandit................

Re: x-pipe and not cat's (WRK CAR)
:iagree: I gained something near 20 of each, could have been the catbacks I had at the time just worked better without them but I could also feel it sotp easily, I don't like the fumes I smell at lights etc and hope the stainless 3" system with off road x will be better, Wade just finished my short block at ARE and has 10 to 20rwhp gains without cats.
