Default How much power lost with cats on LTs?

How much power will I lose by getting catted LT headers?

I need to have cats for smog bullshit but I'm just wondering what I'm going to miss out on with a bolt on and then a heads and cam setup (224 114 cam).

if you lose any, you probably won't notice it. I will be installing some RT cats with my true dual setup which are going to be interchangable, so when I go in for inspection, I will have some cats. I will have a bypass pipe when I don't want the cats on. Just something to think about......

You shouldn't lose much. I doubt with the smallish cam I'm running, there's more than maybe 5rwhp to be had without the cats.
