Even if that's your one and only mod, pretty sure retune is a MUST. So if you want the cat then I'd suggest buying it and then chucking it on just before you do your gas tune (I assume by gas you mean LPG?) and if that is the case why would you want a cat for? to replace some of the power you are losing when you convert the car to gas? unless ethanol or E85 is a 'gas' ?? LOL :P be a man and just run premium 98 :) haha nah actually I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple of people with LPG setups on here so I guess you could go for it? Talking to your tuner first is probably wise move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's obviously too much stuff I should be researching lol why is everyone not doing this then? I'm guessing it is because of the initial outlay? I guess maybe now its becoming a more popular trend as fuel keeps rising lol. Oh well, cbf with that. Im using 98 and if im changing to a different fuel id prefer E85 hahaha who needs fuel economy anyways....as long as its doing better than my last jap car im happy (68L of premium and getting 300kms or maybe 350 IF you don't use boost which is impossible haha) but yeah....I guess to each his own (is that the saying?) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am figuring the cat is a no-brainer to have done (correct me if I'm wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
