A Long Term Evaluation of this Coated EL header with catalytic converter from FA20club.com.

The header still looks good, so far no leaks, and I am getting the power output that I'd expected from the header. No Torque Dip.

Did the data logging for FA20club.com Ecutek Stage 2b5 tune. Finally found the problems with the tune that I thought had been eliminated back in August 2013.

Will I see any performance improvement by removing the primary catalytic converter?

Yeah, there's going to be less restriction. Probably get 3-4whp.

What is your exhaust system after the EL Header? What tune are you running?

Nice system, Isis cat back sounds nice without an EL Header.
Are you pleased with your tune?
