You should just not wast your time and money on one unless u are turbo or supercharged...that 1hp not at the wheels isnt going to make a diff. except make your car smell like **** and sound like ****

Yeah, more often than not people tell me its a noticeable differance. So do you all agree on 1.75" pipe?

NO! that is from my memory.. just take the pipe off and measure it.. just me you will go back and forth with what the correct size is, and you will in the end , end up measuring it yourself..

a free flow cat will flow almost as well as a test pipe, besides you wont pass inspection without a cat, so use your best judgement on that. Is polluting the environment, not being legal, and messing around with fabrication really worth it? You can get a free flow cat for around 100. Just my .02

I'm rice because I want a little cheap power? I don't get that, even if its a few hp its fine, and yes, I do plan to eventually be turbo (hopefully this summer) but by then i would get bigger piping..
