Still running the stock exhaust? If so, then YUP! Good numbers!

U.M.

P.S. Now go get you a CB and watch those number go to 420 or more!!!!

Definately nice numbers. My car pulled 396.2/415 with a bassani x-pipe w/cats. Everything else was stock from the cat-back to the paper filter. I just got my predator tune and it feels more powerful. I'll dyno again when I get a catback and intake done.

No dyno with the stock H-pipe, but there was a shop to compare 3 different cars and they show no HP/TQ improvment by swapping out only the H-pipes for aftermarket. The cat-back system is more of a bottleneck than the midpipe is.

so your saying the stock h-pipe is worth keeping on the car and the aftermarket mid pipes are a waste money on a lightly moded car? its gotta be good for at least 10-15 hp. what about cuting of the 2nd cat on the stock h-pipe?
