Made a huge diference to my car , the low down torque it gave made the car so much better driving around town, as raz sayed over here in the Uk everyone who has removed theres noticed a marked improvment, mind u the 3s-ge doesnt have a lot of low down torgue so any improvement will be felt better that with the engines u guys have

But taking out the cat would actually lose you low end torque. Your doing nothing to increase gas scavenging, just increasing exhaust flow. So, all in all, you should have lost low end torque.

Look m8 I only spend the time to write these posts if I know what I am talking about I am not in the habit of coming on here and telling lies.
It DID increase low end torque, what’s the point in me taking the time to say it helped my car when it didn’t?? it would make me a very bad member to promote something that doesn’t make any difference and have fellow members go out and buy a decat to find its a waste off money.
I am an avid Celica fan that like's to give good honest advice not some bumped up crap just to make myself look good, go ask the same question on www.celica-club.co.uk and see what the answers will be , I bet they all tell the same story as me .. I am only trying to help but every time I say something on this site I get flamed canny win.....
