I'd say that was cruel, but it was too damn funny!

I have had a few made and tested. The first round of testing involved using the stock cats. This gave us 191 hp on a particular dyno on a particular day. Stock ECU. One restrictive muffler. Here is the guy you want to contact: Pete Gebhardt. He just recently left a NASCAR team in N.C. and has been building race cars for years. I found Pete through a buddy and he is a very talented fabricator. His headers were designed to mate right up to the cats and/or the same location if you want to purchase a cat-removed exhaust solution. Pete is a fabricator and not a retailer. You may have to wait a few weeks to get your product but it will Kill. The renesis responds very well to improved exhaust flow and fits without any modification. You'll want to use a car lift and loosen up the passenger side motor mount. You can use the 02 sensor in the cat if you want.

Caveat: Don't ask me about dyno gains and numbers. Dyno's are very subjective. You have to do your own testing with your own components.

Summary: GREAT gains.
