So if I go with the Monza exhaust and injen intake, would you recommend buying a high-flow catalytic converter. Would I notice any more power gains or would this just be a waste of money?

the high flow cat will maybe get you like 1 or 2 whp but would be more of an advantage if you ever go turbo charged if you have the money then yeah more hp is always better i guess but dont expect huge gains

yeah the turbo is pretty expensive but well worth it, its the best bang for the buck imo they try to say nitrous is but i disagree, having that extra power all the time is way better

I totally agree, there is no way nitrous will ever see any of my cars.
