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? |
Did you even try searching?
|
Enthuza just made me a metal core 3" cat with factory flanges. He's finding out what cell count it is. Good price too.
|
right now a cheap jcwhitney POS.
in the garage--I mean shed is a metalcat waiting to be implemented with some v-bands. |

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.

With 1,993 posts and 1.8 years on this forum, matter of fact I did.

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? High flow magnaflow? Not terribly high flow. Metal`Cat kicks their ass. |

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. Metal Cat 3.0" Inlet/Outlet Stainless Steel Catalytic Converter : JC Whitney: Auto Parts & Accessories 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! |
Holy crap, almost $200!!
|
one dollar per cell!
here, if you're cheap. Magnaflow HI-FLO Univ Spun Metallic Converter 3 59959 MAGNAFLOW HI FLOW UNIVERSAL CONVERTER 54959 |
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 ass). can't wait to get mine on, should be here any day. |
None. Detroit Rock City.

Stephanie p.s. I have a magnaflow 3" Metallic core cat. |
ask turbo tim. i have a 3" 200cell metal core cat from him

|
Cat's are for people who want to run less timing and make less power and not shoot flames... aka pussies.

Well actually, using a stock NA 1.8 cat as of right now, until I build my custom 3" exhaust. Then the cat will be replaced with a 3" cutout. No emissions FTW. |
I run the Enthuza 3". Huge improvement over stock (with the rest of the 3" exhaust that is)

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. |
