I have a JIC Spartan ST Catback
I can unscrew the canister with 2 bolts and take it off the backet
My question is with the canister off the exhaust gets really really loud
does taking the canister off net any performance gains at all?
One of my friends wants to run canyon with me, ill be pulling the sub out to leave at home and was thinking of running without a canister if it proved any sort of performance gain. Bear in mind im not about to take off my whole exhaust though.

Wow... I just reread that and I sound like a retard :oops:
but its a serious question

+ 1.
Def or cabin rattle.
And no performance gains, IMO.
Just lose alot of the un-needed weight in the car.

Too many modifcations for the signature.
