imma have to call :zbsflag: on that one. you definitly lose a little torque and gain 5 to 15 horsepower with a cat back system depending on the flow and other mods done to the car.

There is no way you're getting 5 HP from a catback exhaust, not out of that engine. You're lucky to get that much with the whole IHE setup.

i'm not talking wheel HP.. but from my experience 5hp or so isn't unrealistic from a catback.. even on a stock engine, but i may be wrong

While I'll have to call B.S. on the Magnaflow claim on its own, I have gained at least 8 HP at the wheels with just the CAI and exhaust combination. That much (and more, from the looks of it) from just the exhaust is too unrealistic an expectation, however.

Indeed. . .

I was talking about Magnaflow's "claim". . . or at least the claim of whomever was advertising those gains. It's all good. . . we know you know what you're talking about, bro.
