I am happy with the result, but my tuners told me that if I remove my primary cat, the car will be closer to 280-300hp at the crank. However I think that I will loose low end torque, am I right ?
P.S: My car before the tune, with all the other mods outputed 232hp, which means that all the other mods didn’t add much gains. I am attaching a picture of the dyno.

This is an engine power dynograph (converted from whp) But no, you absolutely will not lose torque from headers, but you do stand to gain a good amount of power. Headers and full exhaust, and retune is good for 20-25hp.
