This topic had been discussed a few times before, but this time, instead of speaking based on what you might have heard, think, etc - I think it would be much more educational if people who have some hard facts can comment on this. Note that I have not done a dyno hp test on this so I donot have much info on what is gained or lost. The questions are:
- Does the NSX actually lost some low-end torque with the test pipe? Does it gain any high-end hp? (Taking it in and out and i could have swear that the car pulled just a little bit harder down-low with the cat back on.)
- If any hp gained up in the high-RPM range - How much and at what RPM? For example: On the freeway, downshifhting to third at 75mph, or from a drag-race, would the NSX benefit from the effect of more torque or more hp? (With everything I have done to it, this car can go but i can't gauge the differences in acceleration between the effects of the cat or the test pipe.)
At the end, if the cat is back on permanently, can I remove the cat cover, holding together by 6 bolts on each side, to save some weigh? And what is inside the cat?
