The stock CAT. is actually a fair flowing cat...
unless of course it's plugged up. My truck has little
back pressure, and any less might kill the torque/hp
I have achieved so far. The nice thing about doing things
in stages is that you can see first hand what works, and
what doesn't. If you the complete setup in one step, you
will find an increase--- but you might have found that one
item in the 'system' was unnecessary, or hurt performance.
