that article has just measured how much top end increases the aftermarket and de cats gets, what the fail to say is if there is a bigger improvement in the low to mid range,
people always focus on the top end bhp and torque figure, why?? you hardly ever up in that rev range anyway, i would much rather have the same top end power but have a lot more grunt at the low to mid rev range. de catting the 3s-ge is done not for all out max power but for the improvement in low and mid range torque it gives.
