Ok. I drop off next week at the exhaust shop. I think I'll go catless.

Now would 2.75" be quieter and still ok for 600-650whp?

Cel can be tuned out from a flash. You'll actually gain torque because the turbos will spool quicker/earlier. Never heard of any turbo issues going catless.

I don't remember what cell they are, I'll have to look back through some old posts. I think Neil Switzer may have said what they make.

Between a delete pipe and 200 cell there should be a noticeable spool up difference and midrange...Not as much if they were a 100 cell....Depending on muffler internals the cat delete can make for more top end power also??

There's a local tuner in Calgary that can shut that off for you

I notice a difference - my car spools instantly w/o cats and has instant power even part throttle at low RPM in high gears. (SpeedTech 3" X-flow) Turbo cars need to breathe - the less restriction the better performance.

Sabie if you don't have a flash on your car yet I recommend going through one of the tuners here in the U.S. you don't need a shop to flash your car for you. Save some money and do it yourself its easy. I use EPL for my tuning and I am very happy with performance, price, and customer service that they provide. Talk to Tony or Rich they'll send you a flash cable which plugs into your USB of your laptop and obd2 port in your car follow the instructions and you'll have a monster in 20 mins or less all from the comfort of your home/garage. Just make sure you have a strong wifi connection to your laptop and your good to go.
