i know its not true but im starting to believe that all 02+ GT's came w/ Flowmasters Welded in... every one that i have seen lately that was "stock" has had weld in flows.

now that i have the stupid statement/question out of the way... how retrictive is the stock Catback and what size is it? should i get a midpipe before i change my catback as it has already had the mufflers replaced? and how does the MAC Prochamber compare to other midpipes.

well the stock dia. is 2.25" and it is very restrictive, a O/R prochamber with a C/B will give you good gains and there dia. is 2.5"

The Prochamber is more like an H, but a little deeper. I'm not a fan of the crackle that X-pipes seem to give out either.

The hp differences are like 1-2, if I remember right. If you prefer the deep muscle car rumble, get an H or Prochamber and be done with it. Make up the extra 1-2 hp with a different mod. Or just enjoy the smiles per mile of the rumble.

I haven't heard of anything like that. If there is one, it will probably cost more than just getting a full catback.
