estimated power increase

Post by 93mx3gs »

I have a 93 GS. I recently installed a custom cat-back system, I wish that I would have gotten a highflow cat, but I just put a new stock one on to save $. I ran 2.25" pipe back to a magnaflow muff. Also, I just installed new plug wires, and have notice a pretty large increase in power. After I buy or build a cold air intake how much of a power gain am I looking at? I realize that hp gains don't just add up. And what should my next step be? Headers? ECU? I'm currently saving for the KLZE swap! Thanks for all the advice!

build a ram air intake with k+n <P>or high flow cat maybe a test pipe just for the track ;)<BR> they always say exhaust is the cheapest [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]
