Question De-cat down pipe or filter????

I've just had a 3" system fitted from the first cat back (2nd cat now gone) and the car seems slower. I'm assuming this is down to a drop in torque due to the decreased back pressure. The question is will I benefit more from a de-cat downpipe to complete the system, or an induction kit? The car is a 97 UK turbo wagon and the only other mod is an atmospehric dumpvalve.

Cheers, Andy.
