High Flow CAT
I was thinking of getting a stromung track pipe, which is a straight pipe, and a couple of plug-ins for the sensors. But I thought I would ask a question before. What are the Pros and Cons of it. Does it make it too loud or just make the tone a bit better.

what does the track pipe have to do with the title high flow cat?!? high flow cats and track pipes will make the exhaust louder especially if you have a catback and possibly headers
i have a vid of a car with borla headers and a catback and another vid of the same car with that setup added with the track pipe and lets say yeaaa its loud
if you tell us what you have done i can tell you how bad it would be, and give you the vids

Already posted this in the wrx thread but:

As for the track pipe, awsome gains, great sound(though some resonance). As for legal purposes, FL don't have emissions so I'm fine. It does kind of stink sometimes but I barely every notice it as long as I'm moving. The sound speaks for itself.

A high flow cat or track pipe will definetly make a sound diff, more so the track pipe. I have a Borla header Random Tec high flow cat and a Greddy Evo cat back and its louder compaired to most subbys with just a cat back. I ran with the stock Cat between the header and the cat back for a lil, it made a big difference in sound. There was a very noticeable diff in power as well goin from the stock to high flow cat. I pass emmisions in PA with that set up. From what I have seen at most shops on the emmisions, if it passes the sniffer they dont look for a cat. If you are rilly worried about passing take your stock cat and give it a good couple of wacks on the inside with a long screwdriver or sumthin ( theres your track pipe ) Just keep in mind your back presure.... I dont know what the size is on the Strom. cat back you have, with a high flow or catless pipe in the mix you are getting close to loosing HP not gaining due to too low back presure...........post around to see if anyone has your set up with the cat/pipe setup you are thinkin of
Oh ya if U dont have a CEL light yet U will after you swap the cat
