Default Tomasz is pretty much dead on, but I do believe there are some small gains to be had

by replacing the cat-back. IIRC the center resonator is not pass-through and the back muffler is baffled. That and all the non-mandrel bends in the system lead me to believe that a cat-back upgrade will yield some small gains.

Default Dave..........I know the Stage II programming...........

is dependent on your having upgraded your exhaust. So, if I do the DP/Cat, I can run stage II, yes? So whats the diff between I and II? what's the diff in cost? Thanks!

Default Well you're going GIAC, and they don't make a separate exhaust program.

APR has Stage 1 and 2.

Stage 2 is optimized timing and boost for the exhaust.

When I was running APR S1, I would get about a 16-17psi hold. Now with stage 2, I have about a 19-20psi hold.

The upgrade from S1 to S2 is free with APR.
