[QUOTE="SkippyMcGee, post: 8520671, member: 28858"] let me first preface my question with a little background info... my truck has been given garage queen duties as of this past december when i picked up my s4 to dd. i will be keeping the L forever, and want to mod the thing minimally for the time bring. currently, i have all the basic bolt-ons (4#, JLP CAI, FTVB, Silver Bullet, boost byepass, oil breather, JDM tune, FRPP drop, etc) and have been given the opportunity to pick up a bassani o/r midpipe for a pretty sweet price. i'm pretty much set on it except for a few concerns... 1. performance loss? since im not running a built motor and/or pushing a ton of boost, will i lose backpressure going catless? 2. will the obscenely loud exhaust noise cover my fantastic blower whine?! i test drove an 03 cobra vert with a catless SLP exhaust, and could not hear the blower AT ALL. i loved how loud the thing was, but was a bit put off by the lack of intoxicating whine. i've done a bunch of searching and realize that alot of people prefer running some sort of high-flow cats, but it seems as if most of those people are dd-ing their trucks. taking into account the fact that i barely drive the thing, and i want to get the most fun out of it when i do, as well as the fact that i will be getting the brand new in box bassani o/r mid for way less than half of the high-flow mid, should i take the plunge? also, if anyone has a video of a similar setup (o/r midpipe and catback combo) under load (not just revving in a driveway), id really appreciate taking a look! thanks in advance - artie [/QUOTE]
