Does an off road h-pipe increase horsepower

Or not? I hear alot of different stories on this....Does it really boost HP'S a
bit or not at all? I just bought one to go along with my flowmaster exhaust,
and wanted a beat louder deeper sound and maybe some increase in HP'S... How do
you rate the MAC off road h-pipe comapred to others?

Oh Jesus, YOU again? Are you never gonna learn? Damn, it's time for the
infamous Dave Lyon's Village Idiot Application to come out of retirement.

.....Needless bs snipped.

Although I have never personally seen the dyno results for before and
after, cars with off road h-pipes(friend put them on his drag car) have
"seemed" faster. They were also louder, if that is what you are after.
Most people around here buy hi-flow cats vs. the catless h-pipes. But
yours are just for racin', right?

I ran with one for a while, but went back to stock. I lost torque in the low
end and lost quite a bit of mileage. I could feel it in the seat of my
pants.

The last thing on the list. Its whats best for your mustang. All of
those parts work very well though, you should try them.

It seems faster because its louder. The difference between a good set of
cats and no cats is only a few horsepower and only at the high end.. nothing
you're going to feel. The downside is you're going to give up low end
torque that you CAN feel.
Certainly not worth fouling the air for.

No, but i guess im going to have some trouble with emissions... Most guys just
put back on the cats for emissions testing.... I was just trying to find out if
its worth all the changing over of cats each year....
