Have a good day.
HAHA. I posted up links from excelerate AND heeltoe saying that RT is 300. You posted up ONE link from the "other" forum from 3 years ago that said 200.
The fact that I have seen both in person isn't the base of my argument, it is just another supporting detail, and it is apparently one that you can't claim. At least I have seen them both in person to make the comparison, all you can do is look at forum posts. So I guess by your logic, excelerate is supporting his competitor by saying that RT is 300. Great logic, excelerate is definitely out to misinform people on a product he is selling. You are so smart!

Yep, don't see why not. The 06-08 TSXs pass cali smog checks, so you should be good to go.

Excelerate informs with whatever he is informed. You are smart! ....for not understanding the market.

Can you guys take this argument to some PMs please? This has gone on for way too damn long already.

p.s. I went with the FLP cat and have no complaints. Worth every penny and really solid, construction and just a good quality part + tabs to install a factory heat shield for those of you in less lenient states.

Coop --- have you added a header yet? I assume the FLP is practically as quiet as stock w/o the header...

It seemed to make things a tiny bit louder with the flp in. Right now I am back with my stock catback and my dc header+flp cat and it is really quiet.

I also have a stock catback+header+cat and it is just like stock. The only time it growls a little is when I step on it.

Thanks guys... that's exactly what I'm looking for --- I have no intention of picking up a catback for that reason.

And hey! We actually got a few posts in w/o tearing into each other, lol

This thread made me wanna drive slightly more aggressively yesterday, and I've concluded that I don't need a highflow cat, 'cause it seems to be fast enough for me already, with only icebox + pulley, throttle lag is not much of an issue compare to stock.

Really? Cause I have all the bolt ons minus pulleys and a reflash and it still bogs down haha. I would really suggest just trying a hfc and if you don't like it, you can always sell it or something. Considering you have an 05, you should get a nice gain from a hfc. Just something to consider

ya, unless it is cheap. At $325, I think I will pass. I'm happy with the performance already. I mean.. how fast do you really need on city streets?
