If I were you, I would follow IHC and Opel's word that it alters the powerband.

But if you guys say that the Powerband shifts, doesn't that mean that we do in fact lose low end torque. Which in return would be noticeable in regular driving. I recently added the Richie's V3 JPipe and love the low end performance i got from it. The car feels so much lighter on its feet. I'm really considering the Precats but don't wanna compromise the low end peppiness whatsoever.

My AT/TL chirps the freaking tires shifting from 1st to 2nd in grandma mode after the delete install

VSA on or off......... Off can be crazy sometimes

Powerband shift up has my head spinning

I Got Major BALLZ down low

BTW I no longer have those 20's on...
