nope. i guess he didn't get online last night. i don't see responses from any of the threads in his hypnotic section from last night. he probably won't respond here i wouldn't think. you're going to have to check back with the original thread in the hypnotic section to see what wayne says

You might want to search a bit more on this topic, as it has been discussed to death, but definitely get the hi-flow CAT, there is no good reason for having an ORP.

barely by maybe 1 or 2 hp. it's going to be louder too. the rt is what i want with the stock exhaust. i don't want anything too loud. i've heard that the orp gives you more low end hp but the rt cat gives more in high rpms.

A good estimate for HP gain is around 4-5 over stock. ORP is somewhere around 6-7. Seems depending on the dyno and other mods people get 1-2 above or below those numbers.

What about with FI would it make a big difference I know the cat would have to be more restrictive causing a drop in power?

Actually, the ORP robs low end power, and they'll be about equal gains up top.

Not to mention the $2500 price of a ticket if you get caught with an ORP, again, research, I don't want to repeat myself again.
