Does a catback offer much performance? Or is it mainly for sound? I have one, but I dont know how much I gained from it. I'm sure not much, unless I had a full exhaust. I know I'd for sure gain more with headers and a midpipe, but what about just a catback?

A cat back alone i would guess maybe 5rwhp? It won't be any seat of pants difference for sure, but it will sound so much meaner!

I got 20 ish with LTs, O/R X, and cat back. But before i had single chamber cat back and offroad X and didnt feel really anything. 5 maybe. It sounded cool though.

mostly sound, minor hp. i just tell people i gained roughly 10hp with my setup.

I wish I knew what brand catback I had. I have stock headers and midpipe. The previous owner didn't remember what brand he put on.... is there anyway I can tell? It doesn't sound REALLY loud, but I actually like it, its not as loud as i'd like, but it definitely sounds BETTER. He said he had an X pipe on it too, but took it off before he sold it, (i know that doesn't do anything for me, but I wish he kept it on there...boo). The most flow comes from headers right? Would a full exhaust cause a LACK of backpressure? I dont know why he couldn't remember the brand..... how can that happen? He said maybe mac... but he wasn't sure.

I got about 12 RWHP from my SLP X pipe

Whats the difference between Bassani and BX? Is it like Magnaflow and Magnapacks where the magnapacks are louder?
