will this damage anything? Or is the stock muffler high flow enough to handle it.

No problem. I have Hi-Flo CATS, Y-Pipe and B-Pipe, connected to the stock muffler. No problem thus far. The stock muffler is actually quite good. Just make sure that your B-Pipe matches with your Y-Pipes, and that it tapers down to match the stock muffler inlet.

Yeah, you are running HI-flow cats... Running test pipes will ruin your stock muffler...

Sorry im stupid. hes using the stock be vent. his car sounds like a fiat, thats why i wanted to make sure he isnt wrecking anything.
the test pipe resonating is constant with a stock muffler, and it sounds like a europian sports car.

He doesnt care if it ruins the muffler, he cares if it hurts the motor or any other major component.
He plans on getting a different exhaust in about 6 months. thanks for your input let me know if the muffler is the only part that might get destroyed.

You won't shoot flames just by running an aftermarket exhaust and cats. You have to be catless and run aftermarket exhaust to really see it. And if your running just a single exhaust like mine you REALLY SEE IT! specially at redline and you car hear the loud POP. Its just unburnt fuel burning at the end creating an explosion...
