No point in putting in a high flow cat then strangling it straight away into smaller pipes. Still expecting over 300 kw with this set up on about 13psi so we will see I guessAdam,I wanted the whole front section as one piece mate hence no flange, easier to drop out of the way to do any work etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
