    Default hi flow cat, yay or nay?

    got some pace maker extractors for me vs commodore and wondering if a hi flow cat would be any good?

    i think i can get it free (as im oretty sure its high flow)

    me car has:
    2.5 inch cat back
    plenum spacer
    CAI
    corvette servo (auto)
    soon to be extractors
    in future a dyno tune possible or a tune of alike lol.

    would it be worth it? would it increase fuel uusage with the hi flow cat or will it stay the same?

    cheers

    On a V6 I wouldn't bother. It will use more fuel because you will put your boot into it more.

    hmm was thinking of getting a highflow for my vr v6. as far as exhaust modifications apart from extractors (got them already!) what else would you do to it?

    i got a highflow on my ute however i done a bit to her and have a full exhuast system, however i did notice a little bit of differnce with the highflow, didnt notice any differnce in fuel usage either, i reakon if you got spare cash go ahead if ya dont spend it else where first, good luck
