Default Considering use of a test pipe on track, need opinions on gains....

Im looking to use a test pipe for track use, depending on the gains I may or may not keep it heres my setup, how much would it help?

MODS

-ITR pistons (11.5:1)
-Crower 6403 cams
-Port/polish/valve job/milled head
-Skunk 2 intake manifold
-Crower titanium retainers
-Crower dual valve springs
-280cc injectors
-Greddy stainless 4-2-1
-DC sports stainless cat back
-AEM cold air
-CRV throttle body
-AEM fuel rail
-ITR fuel press reg
-ACT clutch

What would a test pipe do for me? I feel like my cat is slowing me down. Anyone?

A very large carsound cat will have enough surface area to pass emissions (in most states) and still flow good enough for your setup. Plus it won't smell. Just an idea. Either way, don't expect more than a couple of horses if you have a 2.25 collector/exhaust setup.
