Yeah i heard high flow cats flow almost as well as no cat setups. Fine since i got flamed for half throttling against a sohc taurus. My best race was a 01 benz 4matic 4.3 V8 took him off the line and 2nd it was neck and neck. By 3rd he was about to pass me so i let off as im going way too fast on a city road. Looked that car up it has 275hp with a 5 speed automatic.3.21 gears though gave him the top end for sure. If it was a freeway i wouldnt of even bothered to race him

after riding in my uncles 2010 camaro 631hp at the fly 540 at the rear. (he is loosing it all in the clutch) everything seems slow. this is a 11 second car on street tires
I know the feeling. After riding in my dads 950 crank horsepower pro street el camino 11 sec cars feel slow to me it sucks :( Its my aspiration to wanna go faster one day

eh, i think that might be a bit of an overstatement from guys who are proud they can clamp pipes together. i redid 50% of my exhaust (just everything past the y-pipe) with Magnaflow cat and 12268 muffler without tail pipes, and it does offer a little bit of improvement, but not as much as doing a full cat-delete. but, for a street legal rod, they do offer much better flow over stock, and will let you put the ponies to use, for sure.

Last week i took down a prius in my other 99 ram farm truck, flat bed and all... lol it was hilarious. Thought id share, and a better race last month a ricer in his looked stock newer EvO tried to run me and and the wife in her stock 06 Charger R/T, luckly i was driving, took off from a light double lane turning a corner he jumped all over it and so did i, still had traction control on so it cut power which sucked but ran neck to neck just barely getting a bumper on him all the way to 60 in a quick couple seconds then we both backed off cause traffic on a 40mph city street. It gave me a good adrenalin shot! The wife was amazed at what her car could do LOL!

I've seen 2 mustangs, a camaro SS and a supra get impounded for street racing by me in the last 2 weeks! I've been not racing at all due to the high number of cops and I just got a ticket in Ohio. I'm not an frequent "street racer " , but I do occasionally push the gas sometimes. I had a 02-03 stage 1 wrx tailing me and pushing my buttons last week. Nevertheless I gave in and ended up pulling 5 trucks on him at 65mph. Other then that, I don't usually waste my gas.. till the prices drop..haha

I followed my buddy to the local exhaust shop where I am getting my truck done, it was on the way and we both work at the same place so it was no big deal. Anyways, roll up at a red light and I saw him turn into the left lane (was following me). He has a 95 altima with some mods, 5 speed, 4 cylinder but the thing is pretty quick and I figured my truck would be a pig with the 33s. He reved it, I laughed, revved mine, started brake torquing and he started revving, dumped the clutch and both our tires spun but even while spinning, I was pulling away, started pulling and as soon as I hit 2nd, I was gone. I was surprised since I thought it was going to be an even race but at 65 he was atleast 6-7 car lengths behind me. Proud of my dak with big ole tars :D

the only thing i can beat with my stock durango is v6 trucks and all of the ricers around here that think a wing and fart can will add 400hp,and i somehow managed to beat my freinds 83 porsche 944 not by alot but we were up to about 85 and i had about a carlength on him, i cant wait to get a diesel truck with some mods to really have some fun, and i cant even beat my dads stock 01 ford superduty crewcab with the 7.3 in it

Get rid of that heavy ass Durango and get a regular or club cab Dakota and you'll probably see a substantial improvement right there. My 4.7 with my mods before the Superchip kicked a tuned but junk 7.3 ass

Yeah 7.3 F350s are pretty easy, even with my quad cab dakota and only performance mods are intake, exhaust and a nice tune up right now. But I do have 3.92 gears lol
