I thought the general consensus for cat-backs was 10-20 rwhp?

I know after I installed my Loudmouth, the car threw me back in the seat. I would wager, maybe almost 15 rwhp! But that's sotp dyno, dunno what you would get on a real dyno...

My GMMG was the first thing I did to mine when it was stock and to be honest, the only difference I seen was a big drop in my average mpg and the amazing sounds of "bad ***" pouring out the tail pipes!!!

A 3 inch catback over a stock catback should yield about 10 or so HP. A tune alone would probably get you more but if you were to do a good cold air setup with a 3 inch exhaust and a tune you'd be looking at 25-30 hp gain. Just info for you.

Yeah that GMMG is what I want to eventually get for my Z28. Every video clip I've seen is amazing. Let us know what you think when it's installed! Congrats!
