Makes it louder and you can get a big fine for it.

I've had one and it sucked. Don't bother.

I had one on my 88 si with b16. Off my butt dyno I didn't notice any gains, got kinda raspy toward redline. Not worth it as the fine is expensive

I dont know about the laws where you live, but here in florida i have never been stopped for my exhaust and ive had a straight pipe for 5 years. Ive been stopped many time and never said a word about my exhaust.. i know california is super strict in all but if you dont live there then you should be more than find..

and as for power? it makes as much of a difference as full exhaust does... i think its definitely worth it, i would never go back to running a cat
