To Be Catless or Not?

okay since we dont have emissions in SC i was thinking about getting a test pipe and squeezing out any extra power i can from my little D
now i have a megan racing(drift spec) exhaust sounds amazing and i love it and by no means is it quiet but my concern is how much louder/will it be raspy if i go catless? anyone with a megan exhaust have any experience?

RE: To Be Catless or Not?

I dont have a megan racing cat back. But i do have hp racing 2.5" cat back with a small resonator and no cat. It is loud as hell and way raspy. I would just just leave the factory cat on your car. if you do get rid of the cat you will maybe gain 2hp if your lucky. I vote just leave the cat on. you should check youtube if you havent already and see whats on there.

RE: To Be Catless or Not?

this is kinda hard to tell ya what to do. I my self like a quieter exhaust like the greddy sp2 or the apexi ws2. its all about your own taste. i used to love my exhaust being louder but it gets old over time. It took 3 years for it to get old haha but it will happen if its your DD.
