As said in your last thread...if it was clogged..now it has more flow therefore will give you better gas milage. Putting a new cat on there after removing the clogged one would have also increased your mpg also.

thank you...but will putting a new one on now increase it?
Yes it will help.
Under the rules of your last thread closure, speeding, underage drinking, selling a used cat to another member, etc etc should all be against the rules.
