Great chart btw, I like to see uncorrected and corrected.
My first run was with the Borla Touring Cat-back. All else stock.

Well, everyone insists that Cat-backs add ZERO horsepower. So to all those, then my first run with the with the Borla Touring Cat-back was STOCK and should be on the bone stock list.

But that's splitting hairs. All I care about is the 1.1+ ET and 6+MPH gains since.

However, just for fun, since I'll be finished with all my bolt-ons soon, I'll swap the stock exhaust (resonator and trash cans and all) back in and do a day at the track. If I LOSE ET and MPH (all else being equal), then the "they say Cat-backs add ZERO power" crowd will have some 'spainin to do. That, or it will be empirical proof that Cat-backs add no power and the Conventional Wisdom is right this time.

As it is, the "Shorties are for sound only and add no power" crowd are still scratching their heads.
