By the way, gutting the cats for us 96-97 owners is not really a free mod. After you gut the cats, your rear o2 sensors will throw a code, and the car will start running pig-rich. So you either have to get the o2 simulators ($80) or get it tuned (mail order-$125) or do a OBD-I conversion ($275). To make it short, don't gut your cats. If you get longtubes, off-road pipe and eliminate the rear o2 at the same time, I can understand, but otherwise, it is worthless. It is pretty much impossible for a human to feel the 5hp, if that, gutted cats will give you.

Although a lot of people swear it helps, I never had any increase by doing it, and I've done it on a lot of different cars. It also makes the car run and smell worse and in my opinion doesn't sound as good.

I can't remember if you replied to a post I made in the for sale section or not but I have a off road pipe for a dual cat car for sale. When I slapped that off road pipe on and drove down the street it was a huge difference. I jammed the gas around a corner and the rear tires almost broke loose....and thats with a set of 315s in the back!
