i've been told by other people that there is a gain in performance, but mainly im doing it for a better exhaust sound, but if anybody knows if the magnaflow catalyic converters add in performance, please let us know.

You will get a nice increase in sound if you remove the resonators also, and maybe even a few hp.

well im removing the resonators, but i was wondering about any gain in hp from replacing the old catalytic conerters with magnaflow ones, i know that they will make the exhaust note really nice.
