well... stainlessworks has a very similar system, made of 304 stainless and i believe it has a 3.5 inch I-pipe... also... doesn't the GMMG just use old school chambered pipes... a number of different outfits make varieties of those... like http://www.classicchambered.com/classic/products.html and sweet thunder and stainlessworks...

The SW catback is similar, but not the same. A different I pipe, and different chambered mufflers.

those are not the same... i believe GMMG and stainlessworks use perforated cores.. the one you posted use lovured cores that inhibit airflow. this is what it should look like. here is a picture

So GMMG mufflers out flow Sweet Thunders? How much power is normally gained from GMMG cat-back in a stock car?
Sorry for kinda using the thread,
didn't want to start another "shorty" thread

In reality, if you see 2-5bhp from a cat back you have done quite well. What you should notice is the illusion of increased power due to the increased noise. Throttle response may also be slightly better.

I think 300 has the more correct statement. The cat-back swap adds power because it reliefs some of the restriction. Its like having a water hose with several knots, if u undo the knots closest to the end than the ones closer to the faucet, more water will flow out but theres still going to be alot of restriction, if the knots closer to the faucet are undone rather than the ones closer to the end, again more water will flow out but still some restriction will be there.
So both of you guys are correct but the way I see it, you have to add a full exhaust(headers, cats, Y-pipe, I-pipe, cat-back) To get a larger gain.

What makes you say this? Catbacks don't add 2-5 bhp...it's alot more than that. In fact they are dyno proven to add alot more than 2-5rwhp. Also 300 bhp/ton said the y-pipe is a significant restriction and the catback isn't??? Thats backwards. What did 300 say that is more correct than what I've said. Everything I've said is supported by fact, not fancy words. Also, I understand what you are saying about the restriction's closer to the motor, but I don't care if the Y pipe is closer to the motor than the catback. The catback is still MUCH more of a restriction than the Y-pipe. This has been proven many times.
