i did a search but didnt find anything, im trying to find out if i get or lose any power if i run just a straight 4' testpipe replacing the cat and resonator, not muffler, the motor is stock jdm itr, now i have heard people say that u lose power if u run straight header on a stock motor, i dont know if its true or not, so just tryin to see if the testpipe will help.......thanx in advance...

might be good for 2-3hp. nothing significant unless youve got a really nasty setup

yeah...and some people think itll make you stink after driving your car. i dont smell any worse than i normally do and even drive my car on dates and my gf never says anything. it will give your car a more buzzy sound however
