That's all really nice. What exactly are these mods and where would one obtain them?

What's your RWHP now and is it auo or manual trans?

I find it really hard to belive if not impossible that you can remove a cat and muffler to gain 43 whp.

Or are you trying to say it at the flywheel?

Did you do a base line for the dyno and car?

REMEMBER I HAVE AN INTAKE WITH A NEW TUNE UP AND YOU HAVE TO RESET THE ECU BY DISCONNECTING THE POS. WIRE FOR 30. SEC. THEN YOU WILL FEEL THE DIFFERENCE. UNDER STAND THE IS300 HAVE TWO HEADER WITH A CAT ON EACH ONE THAT COMES DOWN INTO A Y PIPE THATS WHERE THE OTHER CAT SITS. THEN IT GOES THREW THE SILENCER TO THE MUFFLER. ONCE YOU CAN GIVE THE VEICLE BREATHING ROOM IT FLOWS SMOOTHLY. DEALING WITH EXHUAST YOU NEED A LITTLE BACK UP PRESSURE. THE VEHICLE BREATHS BETTER WHICH MEANS EASLY COMES IN IT CAN EASLY GO OUT. IT WORKS! :rolleyes:

The proper way is to disconnect the negative wire. And that's a resonator before the muffler. The muffler is a "silencer". again I ask, what was your baseline dyno and what is the RWHP now? I guess it's really results that count.

It's rediculous and impossible to gain that much hp from that little exhaust work. You would gain that from port and polish on the heads, there's not that much constriction on those items.

Resetting the ECu will gain 8 to 10 HP without any mods. That's been dyno proven several times.

How did your dyno turn out?
