I really have no way to judge HP gain other than seat of the pants. When I got the cat out and looked into it I noticed right off the cat was toast. It was severely melted on the first and second biscuit, and I would say was 30-40% restricted. It seemed to me that gutting it opened up the powerband a little, both on the low end and high end. I definately got better off the line throttle response.

The custom intake was a little more subtle because it was done in stages. I first put on the cone filter, and a couple days later removed and replaced the air chamber, and yet a couple more days later I added a cold air funnel system. Over all I would say it was good for maybe 3-5 HP gain, and alot better sound...not that I can hear it over this loud ass muffler. lol

And yes you can buy the muffler off me. I had two chrome tips put on it, and like I said it has less than 500 miles on it. its this one here: http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...ne=main&id=563
I'll take 60 bucks plus shipping if your serious.
