how much horsepower am i being robbed?
as you can see in my sig, i have a 2.5" downpipe and a 2.5" straightpipe. now seeing these mods, how much power do you think that my stock catback system is robbing me of?
I doubt its robbing you of much.
You've already removed your 2 most restrictive items, pre-cat and main cat, so having a slightly better flowing y-pipe and mufflers isn't going to make too much difference...
Just work on you launch to beat that Supra, lol...

maybe i'll actually try a launch next time and see what happens... :/
i'm just trying to figure out what else is proventing my boost from being around 10 psi. everything i have should make it around atleast 9 or 10... the only 2 things i have left are TID and catback...

what if i were to get a boost controller? (providing that i had enough fuel,) do those just force your turbo to produce more boost than it would normally? then i could get it to like 11 or so.
Yes, a boost controller will allow you to raise you boost by quite a bit.
It doesn't force the turbo do produce more boost. What it does it prevent the wastegate from opening, until your desired level of boost has been reached.
