I have an '85 TPI 305.Fresh rebuild, flat top pistons, hotter cam, bored .060 over, aerofoil, ported MAF sensor,baffles removed,K&N's, AFPR set at 45psi, and a punched cat.
What would be a good cat back system? Ive been looking at hooker aerochamber systems. Does anybody know anything about the "super turbo" system JC Whitney sells, Is it worth the metal its made of?
Any advice would be appreciated, Thankx.

 

The JC Whitney system is made by Pace Setter. It is mandrel-bent, aluminumized pipe. The only complaint I had with it is the muffler - 2-1/2" inlet that was expanded to allow the 3" pipe to fit to it. I never tried it with that muffler, just felt it would be too restrictive.

I picked up a Flowmaster muffler to fit with it. Still cost me less than the typical cat-back system.

FWIW, I had a pair of Pace Setter turbo mufflers on the '57 for almost 10 years. Gave them to another racer ('68 Camaro, 327 4-speed) who put them on and picked up 2-tenths over the glass packs he had used for years.

 

I'd suggest the Hooker like always. cheap and effective, sound clip in my sig. I have pics too if you'd like em.

 

thanks fellas. The idea occured to me to order the $140.00 system from JC Whitney and just weld up a hooker or flowmaster in place of the El Cheapo that came with the system and I figure I'll still spend less $.
