What catalytic converter on your turbo car?
Decided I might as well be compliant with laws..
Planning on installing a high flow cat after I finish the built motor cause my current one will be dead very soon.
Need 3" and prefer factory flanged bolt on... What do ya have?

With 1,993 posts and 1.8 years on this forum, matter of fact I did.
Guess I didn't really state my purpose of thread, I'm interested in opinions not just what everyone has.
Searching "Catalytic Converter" returned 305 threads, which the first 2 pages of didn't strike me as very informative.
After seeing your torque curve with that cheap cat I'd be very interested to see what a better (maybe?) cat might do for you. What brand did you pickup? Assume its a universal weld in for your v-band setup?

as mentioned above, that brand. I got it also at JC oddly enough. they were sold out for a year or three. back now though.

I'll have to cut out the current one and weld flanges on both the exh and cat. no big. at least no big once I get my welder back from brian!

worth every penny...
I like the idea I *should be able to pass Harris County smog testing, and see negligible loss in power, and quieten the exhaust just a little more (have hollowed cat right now, man does it sound like ***).
can't wait to get mine on, should be here any day.

FYI - PerformancePeddler sells the Metal Cat brand much cheaper than JCWhitney
http://www.performancepeddler.com/de...T_ID=SUP200605 $134.99
They knocked it down to $125 when I called for "best available pricing". Always free shipping
Performance Peddler drop ships these direct from the manufacturer same as JCWhitney.
