you should get some good power, especially if your cats are clogged. i would say about 15 hp. companies that sell them are MAC Prochamber (probably the best on the market), bbk, Heddman, there are tons of em. the best part is that it will sound SICK!!! especially with a MAC cat-back.

here are some exhaust terms that you should learn so we can communicate well-</P>


1. headers- bolts to the heads and directs exhaust gasses to the x- or h- pipe</P>


2. x- or h-pipe - equalizes exhaust pressureto increase power. connects the headers to the cat-back.</P>


3. cat-back - bolts to the x- or h-pipe and directs exhaust gasses out the rear of the car, through the mufflers.</P>


4. catalytic converter (cat)- burns exhaust gasses to help emission, but often gets clogged and resticts air flow. it needs a 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio to work correctly.</P>


5. O2 sensor - bolts on to the header to monitor exhaust gasses. it then communicates with the computer so that it can maintain as close to 14.7:1 a/f ratio as possible. </P>
