cat-less exhaust

straight pipe = losing backpressure. if you dont have a lot of power thats not a good thing at all.

Ok...back-pressure = bad. You don't want backpressure. What you do want is higher exhaust velocities [sp?] Gutting a cat may give better flow, but could actually slow down the exhaust, thus doing nothing for your car.

did they actually DYNO the car to see the difference? the butt dyno doesnt tell all cuz sometimes you just "think" it does something.

my friend with a 00 eclipse GT ran consistent 15.3's.....after gutting his cat his car smelled weird and he still ran 15.3's...

Hahahaha, the butt dyno =) Very very true though....more often than not, people will change something, claim it feels faster, when it actually does nothing. Face it people...you can't FEEL 5 hp.
