Update: well the headers are in, gonna head out to the dyno on the weekend hopefully. Gonna do some runs with my custom y pipe then gonna cut it off and put on the msds rear part and a new cat and then run again. We'll see if the whole ypipe thing works.

Good deal Zach, let us know. I dont suppose you would bolt up a stock Y-pipe & run an extra dyno pull for comparison would ya. Alot of work for sure but Id love to know how the MSDS compares with stock. Also love to know the contribuion of the high flow cat.
