Lower the better isn't it? It's just indirectly a relative measurement of resistance to flow.
You can't have a cat 'too good'...

They guy who was gonna do mine he said go 200 for the sake of it works better cause it helps the back pressure for more performance but that was with single 2.5 I found dual 2.5 for a little under 600 bucks and 40 for delivery

At least you know what your on about I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about so I just hope when I go to see people they know what there on about I'm only looking for something that is gonna boost power and make one hell of a noise when I give it some people in this town love to cut me off its like they don't see me so I figure if they "can't see me" they will hear me coming

Awww so jealous, completely overlooked the fact that it was a mkii... I love the big 'mouth' in the front bar... Can't wait till that start popping up at wreckers and I can get a front bar cheap! ;)

When it comes to exhaust systems, you don't want any back pressure. People will tell you back pressure creates more torque etc etc, but is yet to be proven. I know for a fact that when I went to a larger exhaust with better extractors, I picked up both torque and power. I used the highest flowing cat possible.

If you want noise, just remove the rear muffler and get a straight through, that will give it a s**t tonne of character :twisted:

That's what I need IDE love to gain performance but for now I just want people to realise I'm there people always cut me off and there excuse is always I didn't see you how can you not see a bright orange falcon with blue fog lights? Mind you they aren't 35w hid they are 55w so even brighter so I figure if there gonna play that card ill make it really deep and noisy

This is what mine sounds like, this is from couple years ago but it still souds the same

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOdoA1XV ... e=youtu.be

What i noticed is i had a pod set up in my airbox with 3 inch stainless pipe intake and it was very throaty and loud. soon as i put a panal filter back in with the original air intake the exhuast note went very deep

Ill get a new video of it this week before it goes
