200 CPI, anything higher and you might as well stick with the OEM downpipe

I'm guessing, with a 300 cell count, very minimal. Maybe 3-5hp less than catless..

No dynos yet but you can expect to make around 10-12whp with a catted solution vs a 18-25whp with catless. A high flow cat is going to flow better than the stock cat but you're adding post turbine restriction and back pressure which isn't ideal in comparison to a catless solution.

They are using Magnaflow cats.

I will just chime in as well.. They're all pretty much the same. Marginal difference for the costs.

I would think that may be true for catless DPs, since they are basically an empty tube. For catted DPs the cat itself becomes the most important factor differentiating the available products, but there are no head to head comparisons available. Even descriptions of the cats themselves are hard to come by. VRSF and Cobb are probably similar since they both use Magnaflow cats.

Once you figure that out it's pretty simple.

When going catted, stick with high quality cats. The cheap cats degrade faster.

In essence, you get what you pay for.

We sell a bunch of VRSF DP's, very popular for going catless.


This.... ^ .... There is a cost difference for a reason.
