That's where i was trying to tell you if it had hiflow cats, it would aid in that lost feeling in torque that you are feeling. Your engine needs some back pressure.
I have the Bassani catted x pipe, and before that i had the MAC off road h pipe (which had ....cough, cough.... dummy cats), and i felt the difference in the seat of the pants with torque between the two.

Nice sound though isn't it!! . Just make sure you keep it on the low side being louder lol!!

Yea if I get pulled over by cops I won't be surprised like my god I scare people in there vehicles if there windows are open LOL. But yea, luckily those 4.10 gears pick it up fast, does feel little less torquey for sure, but it still is overall faster id say it helped the 0-60! I'll just have to get some UDP's, and a good TB/Plenum combo to help make up for it!

I installed the Org.40's Flow-masters with an off road H-pipe + shorty headers. I'm sure I picked up a good 15-20-HP on my 5 liter 5 spd. I'm also getting the BBK-70-MM Throttle body that's good for 12-15-HP. My friend from Lord-co told me not to go with the UDP-kit unless I am racing my car. He said I'll have trouble with the charging??

When you do get some UDP's, make sure you go with the Steeda ones.Stay away from the piggy back designed ones!! Just do a search on google.

The UDP's create less drive on all your accessories so you can gain more power, one of them being your alternator so charging is a little less from what I heard. A lower gear like 4.10 for example wil keep most driving you do in the higher RPM so it makes up for the less charge, and you usually don't have to worry about it unless u got a big sound system or lots of interior accessories that would drain battery.
