Mid Pipe or High Performance Cat?
 
hey, i have a 2004 Auto with 38,000 miles on it. i have the Borla Exhaust on it and i want more power, im planning on getting the Pettit supercharger but that is donw the line next year. i want to get a High performance Cat or a mid pipe. but i dont know which one to get. which one would get me the most power out of it?

mid pipe............youll just burn up the high flow cat in 6 months or so.........the rx8 has very high exhaust temps.......

lilring 12-14-2007 10:31 AM

ok and are all mid pipes the same?

chetrickerman 12-14-2007 10:37 AM

I don't know about with the SC, but with NA, it won't burn up RP's high flow cat (their new one at least).

it wont unless you have something like the RB race flash

chetrickerman 12-14-2007 08:58 PM

chancejat 12-14-2007 09:10 PM

he has a secret...........a high flow that sounds stock but adds close to the same hp as a catless pipe..........or maybe im wrong
