    ah dang thats right vr have the shitty plenum design, scrap that then.
    why not bother with a high flowing cat? do the factory ones flow ok or are you recommending to knock the cat out and run it straight through.

    dont knock it out man, the factory cat is more then enough for a stock engine only good for worked engines

    just get packemakers headers and a 2.5 cat back, then cai high flow air filter ect that sorta stuff man

    Now Saving for a Harrop HTV2300 Supercharger kit!

    Or if you can pick up cheap second hand factory LS1 cats that might be another option. Otherwise the usual bolt ons would be the way to go.
