Will I see a difference?
 
Got the SLP catted X-pipe now. Next spring I'm gonna do a lot of experimenting with CAI's, tb/plenums, u/d pulleys (are they worth it or not), and cats or race pipes.


Question, will I gaine any RWHP by taking off my cats and going to race pipes. Note, I have a full SLP set-up. I have free tunes for life on my car if I stay N/A and really want to take advantage of it.

they say taking off the cats is usually worth 1-3 rwhp /shrugs

Go JLT for intake thats what I would change to but I'm getting a mach 1 in the summer so BBK can stay on there...and for TB/plenum go Accufab I hear nothing but good things and actual gains from that combo..and for UD pulley's every1 says steeda is the way to go and 5-8 hp gain if I am right?

Yes I know all that, my question was will I gain anything from losing cats.

I posted a thread about cats a while back in the v6 forum, and from what i understand...you will gain a little power and a lot better sound from losing cats. I have am getting mine removed next week :D

I do have a question though. Are tuners the only way to turn off the o2 sensors? And if so, is it easy to do?

Well I have SLP LT's and I'm glad I have cats. I'm worried that when I take them off, it'll be TOO loud and just bad sounding.

herndy - You can also use MIL eliminators.

Yea, I know you and I have a similar set up, but I got the SLP LMII catback instead of the Steeda. I'm goin to look around and maybe find some used SLP race pipes, if not o well, new ones aren't that much.
