Hey all...

In my next list of mods is to include a high-flow cat... after looking around thinking of going 4.5" or 5" Bodied Ballistic Metal Core 100 CPSI.

Firstly whats your opinion of these cats if you have one fitted?

Secondly has any had experienced their metal core come loose within the casing? Being a Ballistic cat or other brands?

Exhaust shop I spoke too today mentioned one supplier now also putting "pins" through the casing to secure the core when being used for turbo or supercharged applications! All well and good but this guy is charging a good $100 more than what I can get a Ballistic for.

Anyway really keen on the Ballistic Metal Core cats... but just wanted experiences whether the cores come loose over time?

Cheers guys...

Ive got the Ballistic 5" 100 cell. Previously had a Metal Cat that failed within a year. (biscuit came loose)

The Ballistic core is welded to a inner sleeve, which is welded inside the body.

I don't see this one coming loose. and the cells are very open, so should resist carbon build up / blocking well.

Flows really well also, about the best there is. Very happy with mine.
