Increasing horsepower in a Silverado can be achieved in a variety of ways. Many modifications or upgrades involve swapping mechanical components in order to change the way the engine makes power. Having an engine produce additional power in any method is always exciting, but little mods will bring the same kind of joy to you as those that simply free up power lost to factory components. A particular modification you can make to free up lost power is by upgrading or deleting their Silverado’s catalytic converter.

Catalytic converters are responsible for taking most of the bad gases from your exhaust and converting them into something less harmful or even harmless. However, converters are a screen, restricting exhaust flow. There are high flow versions, that properly compliment aftermarket exhaust systems. If you're looking to maximize your Silverado's exhaust flow, a high flow cat is a must.
