GTOReturns said:Another guy who makes up his own novels. Yeah, I know how fast your running in the 1/4 and how stock your motor is! All I said is I bought an off rd h pipe had it put on and noticed a loss in low end torque. Enough of a loss to make me put my stock H back on. Say what you will, but you have to be the biggest liar on here. Your motor isnt even CLOSE to stock!!

Also I dont know what SOTP meter you guys have, but with my sisters 94 GT it felt and was slower with the 4 cat H on it! No questions asked.
MikeC said:I'll add my 2 cents from personal experience and research. Adding a free flowing exhaust to a stock motor can cause a loss of low end HP/torque, say below 3000 rpm, but will add HP/torque above that point. The loss/gain is due to the decrease/increase in the exhaust velocity and scavenging effect. Puttering around town the low end power loss can be noticable and make the car feel slower. In a racing situation where the rpm's are higher (above 3000 rpm) the car will be faster. So theoretically, the free flowing exhaust will make the car faster in a 1/4 mile type race. Changing to a 3.73 gear ratio will make any loss in low end power non-noticable becasue of the increased torque multiplication and the fact that the rpm's will be higher for a given mph. Also the cats have significant muffeling effect and removing them will make the car louder regardless what catback/mufflers are on the car.
THEY ARE NOT FACTORY STOCK MOTORS!!!!!blackened88lx said:Ok, you guys are insane. I have nothing to do with this argument, but this is rediculous. Look at 25thmustang's and mob's signatures, read times and mods. Until we see low 13 and 12 sec. times in your sig's from your stock motored cars, stfu. It's that simple. Obviously, whatever they are doing works. I don't care what you experienced, or felt or whatever, it's all in the 1/4 times, and I have a feeling those cars wouldn't run that with a stock exhaust...
