there is no way in hell you will get 8-20hp from it. whoever told you that was a moron. oh, and talk to xtremers on this board about getting a custom made 2.5" test pipe. he makes em for a good price.

ok first of all i only lied cause ive posted this same fuckin question 3x and got no answers and on this one within a half hour i got 3. so it works lying. id prefer to not but this time i had too. anyway, i want to get one cause there cheap and its a lil extra power for the price. and im lookin at an obx cause i got that obx header and it was good so y not right. everyones helped me except on this 1 particular question. oh yeah and nobody really told me if i should get one and what brand and how much power i might get out of it.

you just need to be very aware that you will be super rice with the test pipe on. it gets really loud and raspy. i took mine off cause it was killing me.

the only way it will sound gay is if its non-resonated.

1. the reason you didnt get any replies is because this type of thing has been answered 1000000000000x there is a search here for a reason and it works damn good
2. like everyone said...there is no need to lie. you need to search topics before you even ask anything. 98% of the time when i have a question...i dont even bother asking anymore...i go straight to the search. just about everything has been asked and answered quite thoroughly here.
3. test pipes are basically a waste of time if your near stock. you need lower EVG (exhaust gas velocity) to maintain what little low end torque you have. you add a test pipe and youll absolutely kill yourself in the low end. you wont gain much of anything near stock. you need to be pushing a lot of exhaust to gain from this mod....liek a turbocharger.
4. as stated above...it will sound like ass most of the time. super ricey
EDIT: it took me 10 seconds to search and obtain 65 topics discussing high flow cats and test pipes. this covers everything from people asking about them, opinions and reviews...as well as where to get the, and what they do. learn to help yourself a little and youll go far
