Yes I did. The car is much smoother when accelerating and idle is a little better. I had a cat before as seen in the pic and don't have one anymore. I'm guessing most of that has to do with the cat. But "the beast needed to breath better" as Brian put it.

I have a lot more low-end torque I've notice. Was at WOT, redlining the other day and the thing just keeps pulling great. Very happy with it. My buddy who was losing when I we were on a closed course said I left a nice trail of black exhaust smoke behind the car. Beat his IS300 by over 2 car lengths, after starting off behind him.
