I dunno I really have no idea, I have a catback and I notice a slight bit more response thats it. but all I have is the catback.. Im sure the I/H/E setup does a lot more than just a catback tho.

The cat back will give you like 2hp and the SRI will give you another tiny number. Maybe 5-6 if you have a EX, and maybe 10 if you have a dx/lx (because you would be getting rid of the cat) Save all that money and do boost or swap.

so much money and it barely does anything for performance

those were the same mods i was looking at getting...not now. thats a lot of money for not much of a noticable improvment.

daorndorff...by boost do you mean turbo?
