Did they test any high flow cats?

They didn't test any cats.

Other note:

For people looking for info on ASR, the model name is Tengu2 and part # is FRSMD02. Google isn't too helpful with them, though.

so the reason why 2 exhausts out perform the rest by a wide margin is because of the cat delete right?

like someone said before, piping is piping

and my nameless piping cost an arm and a leg!

Muffler delete. Not cat.

piping is piping but we are paying top dollar for these so called pipes and i for one would like to know im getting my money worth. spending $1150 for something 350 can achieve goes a long way for people that dnt want to spend alot. I know quality, design, r&D come into play but comparisons like this are helpful i think

Just ordered the Berk muffler delete because of this article. I will probably end up buying the Perrin system, since i want to do a header back system, but for now the Berk pipe will work and I will sell it when I'm done with it.

Sound quality and volume is probably the biggest reason people don't go with the cheaper, better performing deletes.

I found it funny that the Berk muffler delete actually showed such high gains. My friend was just knocking me for not going with a full catback lol I showed him this article and he had no choice but to bite his tongue.

Just picked up the issue myself, it's really good stuff, though the Nvidia system I'm getting wasn't included :<

True that is the biggest reason. I honestly like the sound of the deletes...just heard asr for the first time and i liked it. heres a sound clip for anybody that hasnt heard it..i think its sounds better than most exhaust to me..imo

On some real levels, a turbo kit will be less expensive and blow you any day and where you want at any RPM you want. You see where im going with this....
