hmmm, when comparing the dyno in this thread and the one for the 57mm dual, here's what i see...
stock exhaust (i assume with OEM cat) made ~205whp max
57mm dual + HFC made ~210 whp max
so the exhaust and cat upgrades together made 5 whp. i too wish a pull with the stock cat was made so a more accurate comparison can be made amongst the TP, HFC, and stock cat.

Especially the part that says "THE ONLY PART CHANGED WAS THE EXHAUST"
and
"ONLY PART CHANGED WAS THE BERK TEST PIPE, TO BERK HIGH FLOW CAT."
We baselined the car which already had the Berk 50mm HPC header & Berk 63.5mm test pipe & STOCK EXHAUST.
This netted ~204 HP.
Then we swapped the STOCK exhaust for our Berk UHV Dual Titanium.
This netted ~212 HP.
We left the exhaust on there, & swapped the test pipe for the high flow catalytic converter.
This netted ~210 HP.

The cat is much lighter than the stock piece (the weight difference is probably somewhere in this thread). Wow 
the high-flow cat makes big power compared to the OEM cat - this is a turbo car. I need to touch-up the fuel map a hair, but I'd guess it will be in the 20-30whp range for sure.

I'm assuming you can get even a little more out these with a good tune right?
I only ask cause there's an e-manage ultimate in the mail right now

Yes. The dyno's you see are on the stock ECU.
