Default BoomTube owners please respond

OK, put the BoomTubes on and they sound AWESOME (stock exhaust). I then come across the youtube vid with the o/r prochamber and boomtubes, my question are these:

How well would the car respond/sound with the prochamber that works with the stock cats?

Would it be beneficiary to replace the stock cats with hi-flow cats, according to info regarding Kooks LTHs their hi-flow cats (would replace mine with magnaflows or???) are so good that they claim their offroad setup would be worth 2-3 HP over a catted system?

I know that statement is with their longtube headers but wouldnt the same principals apply by replacing stock cats with hi-flows, just different HP loss/gains?

Does anyone run LTH with cats, prochamber and the boomtubes?

My stang is lowered and we do emissions testing every year and its already a pain to get under the car to work on it as it is and I do not have access to a lift so for me its not just a 30 minute job to put the stock piece back on if I had the o/r setup, more like half a day (I'm 40 and work slower now).

any one know the sound/power differences from the H to a X with the boomtubes? I have a splice in X on mine with the boomtubes, still waiting to get a video up.

Please post a vid. Let us know what happens. I really don't want a RASPY sounding exhaust and I'm curious to see how the Kooks and the H sound with the boomtewbs.
