I THINK ITS A BIT MORE THAN 5-10, STOCK H IS VERY RESTRICTIVE, I HAD AN H OR H PIPE AND WENT BACK TOHIGH FLOW CATS IN PREP FOR MOVING BACK TO NEW YORK, AND THERE WAS A BIG SEAT OF PANTS FEELING.

If you gain any horse power i don't think you will notice it on a stock car. I could barely spin my wheels after swaping off my cats. But it sounded so great I didn't mind.

yea its one of the off road ones so no cats on it... all of the cats are clogged a little right now so anything will be better than it is now...we had a guy test the cylindar compressions and 3 of them are only running bout 80 lbs...he said probly 3 of the valves need reseeted...we were guessin the clogged cats are what caused it
