So you gained 22hp by removing the cats? Did you add headers or anything? Your cats were that clogged and your truck is a 2003? I wonder what my 2000s look like....lol wont have to worry about that for to much longer thogh, pacesetter should be here soon.

nice numbers that gain is incredible from just removing the cats. why didnt you just go with a complete ofr y pipe?

After running it hard could you smell anything when you got out of the vehicle (with the cats on)?

oh definnently.... it was running rich... and the guy at dynolab said that if it was running rich it usually will melt the inside of the cats.... I was also really suprised at the gains....

The only thing I did was do the cat removal...... Im telling you I was really happy..

He said you should be able to shine a light through them and blow hard through them..

You couldnt see anything through them and definently couldnt blow through them...

I can see why that might have been holding it back....
