Exhaust Question - Need some advice!
Hi guys,

I already deleted the secondary cats + resonator in my C32 SC.

Could i get more power if a delete the primary cats? or the car will decrease

the power because the engine need some backpressure?

My specs are in the signature.

Thanks in advance.

I can be wrong, but I believe you will gain slight hp, and lose torque

Yeah, I got more of my deep sound after the headers and the extra torque is amazing!

Yeah, I agree. If anything just remove the muffler. Don't remove the cats. Personally, I wouldn't touch your exhaust anymore.
