removing cats. Hp gain?
hi amg fans. To the people that removed or modified their catalytic convertor. How many hp did you gain? Did you also modify the ecu? Thanks in advance

removed my secondaries. Butt dyno says yes!!! and the exhaust sounds so much better w/o drone given that you keep the resonator on.

which cats? primaries or secondaries?
on C55, deleting your secondaries is good for 5-10 whp/tq. On a C32, deleting the secondaries will add zero power and make your exhaust louder
for the primaries on a c32, you likely won't see very much gain from removing/switching to high flow primary cats UNLESS you have hearders since the stock exhaust manifolds are very restrictive and are the bottleneck. I don't recall the numbers for deleting/switching to high flow primaries on the C55 but i'm sure they're worth something

but if you love the sound, then clearly it was worth the money
