Agreed they are the biggest restriction. Problem is having a cat in the first place. I could definitely see 8-10 hp by eliminating cat all together. Not sure if there's a good HFC out there that will give me 8-10? I don't want to mess with my ECU and have to worry about sending it out to some tuner.
