Talking 18HP and 11TQ gain!!!

So I decided to make use of my day off and took the car back out to Corvettes of Dallas this morning for a couple of dyno pulls to see what my Crawford High-Flow Cats and HR Y-pipe gained for me. The results were way beyond what I was expecting.

I gained 18HP and 11ft-lbs to the wheels. All I added since the previous dyno at that location was the Crawford cats and the HR Y-pipe, that's it!

I am very satisfied with my results, and it just goes to show how restrictive the stock cats are. I would definitely recommend the crawford cats. I wish I took the time and money to see how much power the HR y-pipe alone would have gained for me if anything, but oh well.

YUP.. that fits before your exhaust system... More air in (SC) more air out (HFCs + exhaust).

Abso-dang-lutely! In fact, the less restrictive your exhaust is, lower boost will be required to produce the same horsepower you achieve today.

The problem with making any changes like this when you have a SC, you may need to get re-tuned =/

That's awesome Dominic!
I need to put my Kinetix on and re-tune.
Kind of scared about the sound. Have heard a couple dousys from BlueBob and VicariousVision.

I've been running Kinetix HFC's for 22k miles with Injen SES and still love it to this day! Never had a problem with my Kinetix like some have had

Yes sir, all factory exhaust except for the cats and y-pipe, although technically the y-pipe qualifies as "OEM", its just off the 350ZHR motor?!?!?
