Re: Catted ypipe vs catless ypipe

Power increase/loss is a moot point with modern hi-flow cats. So many other points to consider before that, most of them around inspection/emissions and noise ordinance

Re: Catted ypipe vs catless ypipe

completely agree. cats are no where near as restrictive as they used to be. depending on where you live, the cost of going catless can be more costly in the long run than keeping it
