I put my long awated test pipe on my car, and got rid of my factory cat, thank god for states where they don't do emissions.

Any way, what a night and day difference, I know on a couple of friends stock ITR's, it made a little difference, but they said that they had barely noticed it other then a slight noice difference.

I supose running like almost 13:1 compression and aggresive cams on my car would be a compelling reason for such a drastic difference, I guess I just never really gave any thought to how restrictive the factory cat really was. Any way, the only down side I've noticed, is that my car sounds a little more ricey then it did before, nothing crazy, given that I still have stock exhaust, but still a side affect I'd like to ditch.

Any way, my next step is going to be either the Spoon or Type-One B pipe, I've talked to loads of people on the pro road/drag race circuit, and the general consensus is that the stock ITR muffler flows plenty for an all motor car, and sounds the least ricey out of all the mufflers out there, not to mention not ratling your teeth out from the vibration. I just have a very serious problem spending between 350-400 bucks on a piece of pipe with a resonator cut in. Oh well, guess I'll have to splurge.....

Any one know of any other nice B pipes the work with stock mufflers?????

Later,
Aj
