WHAT ARE THE BEST HIGH FLOW CATS FOR 2010 CAMARO

Does anybody have a list of high flow cats available
For the 2010 camaro l99.

I would like to compare sound & gains.

So video clips & dyno"s are a must for me.

I can't afford to make a mistake

Ps

I think it will be great to have this info for every body upgrading there exhaust.

We're gonna need you to be a bit more specific.

are you only wanting to replace the CATS or are you looking to get replacement headers that also have high flow cats?

Then there are the many cat back options.

Point us in the right direction so we can help ya out.

I'm talking cats only , there is a ton of different combos that you can put together but I'm trying to find out what cats are top dog right now.

Sounds like your happy with solo that's cool.

Do you have any before and after dyno test runs or any proof that you can feel a difference.

Maybe better times at the track ?

Cat's only, Got it.

I'm not sure there are many dynos of cats only or vids for that matter... I've been browsing the exhaust threads and the vast majority of the dynos and vids are of complete systems.

Not many guys are swapping out only the cats.

FWIW

Well that's understandable , but what I mean for example solo claims like 22 hp or what not , is there any company like solo claiming hp and tq gains.

Or is solo the only one making claims like that.

I heard solo cats on a stock car and it was real good.

So as of right now solo is top dog to me any way because there making true gains and there cats sound like a 1000 dollar exhaust system.

So is there any other players in the market that can put out high flow cats , with the sound , quality , gains & price like solo.

I had the JBA Catted mids on my car and they made a HUGE difference over the factory cats. I had no check engine lights and I could not beat the price on the JBA mids. Any exhaust you have will sound much better with the addition of High Flow cats.

I swapped out only cats (used Solo) and it seems to be a big difference. I have an L99 and still have the stock manifold, resonator etc.

When you say huge difference I'm thinking your talking about sound.

What about performance do you think you had any big gains like solo ( 20-25 hp ) ?

If you did then that means jba is right up there with solo but like half the price !!!

That's what I want to do leave everything alone and just change the cats.

And as of right now I'm convince to purchase the solo brand but I need to do some more homework.

If jba hf cats put out the power that solo does I think I will have a change of heart.

There 391 and solo l99 cats are like 750 or so.

As far as sound goes I'm sure there will be a difference either way you go so I don't really care .

The JBA and SOLO use the same parts to build so they should make the same power. Both companies use 200 cell count stainless substrate cats and 3/8" flanges. I know JBA is a much larger company and that is why they can offer parts less expensive than SOLO.

I would say the mids on my car made 15-20rwhp.
