blu this is why V6 baned you. anyway a full cat back will give 10-12 horse power... a muffler will be 3-4 at best

dyno pulls and non-flowmaster studies show that the baffling inside can actually hurt power. I would go with magnaflows or even warlocks, and id install headers and a full stainless x-pipe system for max power gains
