What Kind of power?

What kind of power should i expect out of my pro5 with the catless midpipe that protegegarage.com sells and an obx header? Thanks

Obx header alone gave me 5, but im at altitude so expect a little more from the header alone

throttle response and acceleration are well improved with our catless midpipe and obx header. the header alone makes a noticable difference in terms of powerband and acceleration, especially up top.

your stock cats are very restrictive and removing them does wonders for the car's breathability. don't forget to cap it all off with a decent catback exhaust and you'll be set - rid of those tiny pipes
