Message	I said I am aware of the debate about the "backpressure" blah blah blah... Glad you're paying attention. If you're happy with your setup, SWELL. Personally I think the ideal setup for the NA would be a Y pipe into a single 2.5" exhaust and muffler. Similar to what's available on the 350Z. Who knows, maybe Greg could make me something like that. All I know is my Z is running smoother. And without a doubt is making more power. Furthermore, she still rips off the line with plenty of low-end torque. If you ask me she had too much low-end torque to begin with. I like the slight trade off in terms of driveability and smooth delivery of power. If I had the funds (and maybe sometime in the future I will) I'd buy another set of pipes with new cats and I'm sure I'd still be happy with that setup as well. Afterall, my cats are OLD. 113,000+ miles and I can hear little bits of crap shaking around inside one of them (that can't be good). I don't know what a clogged cat would look like, but it wouldn't surprise me if mine were garbage. So given that I would like to run N20 in the future, I decided not to spend money on new cats. Is that okay with everyone? Memeber #124 of Capital Z of Texas and member ZCCA My CarDomain page
