Hedman, makes a cat-back? Sure you're not thinking of the Hooker?

You won't really notice a difference performance wise unless you're building a lot of HP. Which then tests have shown that Hooker slightly outflows Flowmaster. At idle, I think Flows are louder but when accelerating or WOT, I prefer the sound of Hooker better. Sound clip is in the signature.

Like said, no computer mods needed. Jegs lists the Hooker in their catalog. I bought the $200 one and had it fabricated to fit. The only diffference between them, is the way they connect to the cat.

Just call Jegs, I'm sure they can help, sometimes they have stuff that isn't listed.

I'd go with the hooker, and look for them at summit, I've had good experiences with them.
