Re: high-flo cat (Islandboy)
Not unless you have a serious breather.....i.e. FI or 10,000 RPM. Most current Cats are very close to a Freeflowing cat. 2-3 whp diff.
However, a strait pipe is a different story.

Re: high-flo cat (Spade)
As spade said they are not really worth it. Don't consider gutting it either, I know you didn't mention it, but it can cause serious back-pressure and back firing. Leading to a flooded engine. Rarely happens, however it still isn't worth it...
Test pipe
- if you never have to take emissions...

High flow cat gained me 5hp at the top. They definately work. (BTW, I'm using a 3" universal cat, not just a bolt on high flow)

Re: high-flo cat (Islandboy)
if u really want freeflowing..go straight pipe..same results..but, ull need to be running 4k or more all the time cuz u wont have torque to work with...mine, i fried it after a couple of months..we to a standard aftermarket cat. and never have had problems with it

Re: high-flo cat (deepnite)
Forget a cat, unless you have to get emissions tests run a straight pipe!!!
If you have to run a cat then get nothing less than a CarSound Cat! They rock!

Re: high-flo cat (97CivicFerio)
A test pipe is a straight pipe used to replace the cat!
well turns out....5 months later, they are selling the same exact "hi-flow cat" as a "test pipe".....what a bunch of lame Fawkers!!
I was so right.....I just found this out too! I should call him and tell me "told you so"
lol
