I'd like to hear it too. E-mail me at mx3freakit@hotmail.com <BR>I bought a MagnaFlow Race series Model #14842 cheap and on a 4-cyl it sounds great. I still have the cat on so I can have back pressure on the engine.<p>[ August 18, 2002: Message edited by: Magnaflow ]

I beleive the purpose of the Cat converter is to burn off excess Fuel fumes. So it shouldnt really affect gas millage
