Default New cats +6 hp

Picked up 6 hp to bring it up to 410 now with some dynatech hi flows that Tom got for me. We were actually trying to get a nitrous number but kept smoking the tires. So after adding 373 gears and the cats I gained 6hp, didnt actualy look at the torque I'm sure it improved as well. Damn window switch though was not working properly all the time. Need to investigate that further next week. 410hp though on Toms mustang dyno.. ain't bad

Where did you get those cats at? Are they or do they come in 3"? I have a 3" true dual setup and one or both of my cats went bad at less then 10k miles and in about 18 months. They are Carsounds and I am NOT impressed.
