More than likely not. I have seen many dyno sheets with the stillen setup and I don't feel the need to spend $100 on confirming what I have seen. I am going to install some resonated pipes like zxsaint suggested and I am about to order some UR racing pullies. After I do this I will go dyno to see how my car stands. After all that is complete the Stillen SC stage 3 will be going in (Late summer/early fall) hopefully.

Yes the Stillen Exhaust is heavier but just slightly, it has been proven to have the best gain Hp & torque on many dyno sheets so the weight does not bother me. It's like a -10lb difference. Plus, i removed my cats and put in race pipes which weigh much much less. So it all evens out.

I'm not doing it to make a pure track race car. It's my daily driver. I have posts of my audio setup in the Audio forums on here. Removed my spare and placed in a sub. I want speed/sound/comfort/looks - so if i sacrifice an 1/8 of a second on the 1/4 mile, so be it. I will still be jamming out and have an AC to keep me cool

I will try and get the install pics by the end of the week.

the modification was to weld an in line resonator after the O2 sensor in the racepipe. To do this, some of the racepipe and exhaust were cut to fit the resonator.

Finished product

No more rasp
No loss of airflow
Same power
Deep tone

The resonators are 2 3/4" on the inside and just over 4" in diameter total

It felt good. You could feel the difference, especially in the top end above 4k RPM. Plus the it sounds meaner . It's hard not to drive it fast anymore. I can't wait to get my SC installed.
