As we all know the 96 GT came with six cats on it.. Well I recently had all of them removed along with the installation of 40 series flowmasters and I dropped the K&N filter in.. Can someone give me a general idea of what this did to my car? I mean it sounds mean as hell and it seems as though I have picked up some power. If so can you give me a general idea as to how much I gained/loss? Thanx in advance....

What mid pipe did you put in?
The mid pipe probably gave you 10-15 hp. Mid pipe and new mufflers = mean sounding car

? So you cut the cats out of the mid pipe? I don't understand...
The mid pipe is the pipe with the cats on it... The Flowmasters is the catback.
