No, read back Daz, I think it was Rabbi said that.

Ok, i see. He didn't say what tune he was using tho. I imagine that could be why. Others with gutted cats seem to be happy with them, at least the ones who removed only the material and not the entire channels. Kinda worries me, but then i will be using Dizze's no cat tune. Then again it's a richer tune so i wonder if that could make for an even worse flamethrower scenario. hell, i may not even try this anyways.

You have the 1600 right? I plan on using Dizze's no cat tune. In fact, thats the only reason i'm doing this. If not for that i would have had zero reason to do it. I'm using his with cat tune now and theres a nice gain with it. But his dyno comparison between the cat tune and no cat shows 9 Ft Lbs improvement and a 5 HP improvement, both i believe peaking at 3500. Quite an improvement for just gutting the cat and loading a tune. So i had to try it. I just hope it's not too loud and doesn't pop too much, as either may cause me to reinstall my unmodded cat. No doubt both will happen, it's just a matter of degree.
