Default catted or catless?

is it really worth it to go catless and if so how much hp power difference? how much power does the downpipe add in the firstplace? the guy i had do my exhaust wont do a exhaust without a cat so i would have to find someone in central IL to do it


edit

IDK what the laws are where you live, but if you were to get a catless DP, you might fail the emissions part of your inspection. But I would definitely go catless. I live in Buffalo, NY and a catless would not fly due to emissions. But if I didn't live here I would have no hesitation going with a catless.

the catless is the way to go, you can really feel the pull on top end when you change. If you buy the catless 3" dp from wbodystore or hogan you wont need someone to weld it up because it bolts in.

Email Hogan or call and ask for the catless version. Bet he can still help you out.

IMO, it's not worth it to keep the cat...
