It made my car sound like **** so I bought a high flow cat and now it sounds better. I may have gained minimal power up top but it wasn't really worth the sacrifice in the noise quality.

get a test pipe, they are easy to make. you can just swap it out when ever.

I'm sure you'll get some top end, but sacrifice some low end b/c of loss of backpressure....
