[QUOTE="4play, post: 1451848, member: 7223"] "No vehicle that came with a cat performs better without it " Seriously? For one back pressure has nothing to do with it, and any engine besides mainly 2-strokes do not benefit at all from back pressure, its a very common mis-conception though. What you do want on some applications is exhaust scavenging and only at certain RPM's, which can be related to back pressure but its not the same at all, back pressure is bad. I dont recall seeing dragsters running restrictive headers, convertors or even mufflers for that fact. If we did follow this theory of back pressure, how much is too much? Is more better? What is so magical about a exhaust convertor to produce said back pressure at a correct level. If this is true, why do they have high-flow cats, performance/high flow mufflers and exhaust etc...?
