Made 355whp

I was going to post the dyno chart but im to lazy. Long story short. my cats craped out so i replaced them with random tech's hi-flow cats and made 355whp on the dyno. No before dyno this time because of bad cats. Last dyno i made 348whp. Car feels very strong. Strangely the car sounds louder but had less drone There are a few bottle necks in the exhaust system that i want to address but until i do that; 355whp and 360wtq is where im at.

You're talking about your primary cats you replaced correct? If I remember right you cut out your secondary ones a while back.

Nice numbers Impressive!! Did you dyno it before the RennTech airbox?

I'm going to dyno mine with RotoTest next season. I think I'll have aprox the same numbers as your C55. Made 420 HP at Kleemann in Denmark this summer

I have alot of dynos. I usually post a dyno after each mod i do. I went for a ride today and the car just feels insane. The dyno says I only picked up a few HP, but it just feels stronger then ever

So your primary cats were clogged? I'm certain there was a service advisory/recall for this sort of thing. I won't have to worry about my cats in the near future as I'm getting a little "Comfort Power" soon!
