Honestly, I wouldn't do either. But if I had to choose, it would be the hi flow cat. Keep in mind, if you run no cat, no resonator, big piping BS it will hurt your performance. Our cars need back pressure to run properly in stock form.

pro's, you get to buy mods

con's, it won't make an ounce of difference if you're not running a high HP set up

I'm running the Megan Racing test pipe. Didn't make things much louder and freed up the exhaust stream for the turbo. Only prob is i gotta swap the stock cat back on every 2 years for inspection :(.

But aren't boosted cars are naturally quieter than N/A car's because most of the noise stops at the turbo, well until WOT lol.
