Do a search, you have already done the worthwhile free mod to your car.

Most these free mods raise debates over wheather or not they actually add any hp, but anyway You could rip out the air silencer.

And sometimes its hard to feel the hp increase. I really didn't notice any increase in my catback, not until I got the leak fixed ..

But I've noticed nothing with the whisper lid, maybe a slightly deeper tone but the B&B is already pretty deep so its hard to tell.

a cat back isnt a free mod, but a leak can cause performance loss

I figured someone was going to say that . My point stands. Since I don't know of any dyno tests for the 3.8 free mods (its hard to find dyno tests for the aftermarket, like Triflow) I thought you meant the dyno feel, or the SOTP feeling. I meant if I couldn't feel much difference in hp with something that's been proven (mainly the whisper Lid) then it would be hard to judge whether a free mod gave much hp.



Once again, at least I haven't see any tests on the free mods-maybe they're out there?
