A while back I got a 2.25 inch exhaust put on my 7a and noticed that I seemed to lose a little power compared to stock exhaust. My cat. is gutted and I have headers. Im pretty sure the loss in power was due to not enough back pressure but I was wondering if getting another cat. or a resonator might give me the amount of pressure I need to regain some of that power? any suggestions??

So would it make sense that since I have a gutted cat. that is just sort of messing with the flow and building it up in the cat. it is kind of slowing it down and then letting it cool. So do you think it would help to get rid of the gutted cat. to increase flow so it doesn't have as much time to cool??
