A catalytic converter like part # MF99206HM is not intended to increase horsepower when installed.
The intent is to reduce the amount of contaminants released when the engine is running. Since the exhaust system is part of the overall tuning of the vehicle, if it were removed it would or could have a negative effect on the performance of the engine.

We can absolutely install the Stealth Hitch # SH25VR and all of the included wiring, but we cannot reprogram anything.
If reprogramming is required, Stealth Hitch can... view full answer...
