yeah the best bet would be to buy a catless dp if you want to stay catless. That's the way I would do it. I always say do it the right way or don't even bother wasting your time doing it the cheap way.

Gm stage kits still regulate 12.5 psi after 6500. So I'm not sure how u guys are hitting higher then 12.5 before 6500. You must have clogged cat.

for sure, everything in making power is better flow and more fuel for our cars. If you know where the restrictions in our engines are you can make some decent power and not waste your money on things that dont need upgraded

uhm....no.


check your boost bypass valve. it may not be opening all the way. mine had that problem. thought i had it fixed. but then it started opening too early.

our injectoers can copinsate for a short time, but hen itll go lean and then kuboom, i still say its clogged, because even if the bypass valve wasstuck yous till would not get that much boost because it dont open till around 6k to be safe, so if it builds up while in rps then you have a clogg

Maybe it is like this in a newer stage tune, but my stage 2 tune had full boost at all times.

The car does not generate more boost when you put it under a load.

Just because the PSI measured at the manifold is higher does not mean that your are moving more air. If there is a clog then the back pressure is raising the pressure in the manifold, it does not mean that the car is running lean, in fact it is probably running rich if anything.
