So I finished my header-back exhaust about a week ago and was wondering how much of a difference i should have seen if any? I had two cats before, and I beleive eitehr 1.75-2.00" pipe. I replaced all of that for 2.25" pipe with only 1 highflow cat. PLUS headers. Just wondering if anybody can tell me a rough estimate of how to see if it made a difference. I know before all of that my car wouldnt leave patches at stop signs, now it does easily. maybe a zero-sixty test? Anybody have numbers to compare it to?

I was thinking about getting one of those electric superchargers to see if it would make any difference. I am thinking not much if any but as Bigmeanbulldog55 said, I opened up the exhaust so my engine can take more in right? -------------------- |
