As for the cats i did not have the option to have on or off since I have the borla catback. I would have to buy aftermarkets at this point to weld on.

Also the whole extra power feeling its deeper and meaner so sound can be mistaken for extra speed but yes it does feel stronger. Also the computer is still learning I have driven my car home from dealer and then out to dinner tonight so really have not had enough time to answer this.

Sounds good JBFGS300!

The gearing doesn't change with the addition of the headers. Third gear is good for just over 90mph. See chart below.

Sounds like a NASCAR. I can only imagine what those cars in front were thinking as you were coming.

Oh damn, guess I was just imagining, but I could've sworn I was getting higher rpm. Oh well
