The main point of restriction is in the stock cat.

The Magnaflow spun metal cats as we have discussed for a while seem to give the most flow and still maintain emission control.

Many of the Euro kits just address the silencers, which over stock may sound better but provide no additional horsepower.

Agree that larger then a 2.5" pipe would be counter productive.

Best setup is just the individual high flow cats and a rear silencer ( two in the case of a V8)

Are you looking at an x-pipe in your system for balancing and scavenging ?
