Zerosignal Phantom Menace Donating Members 232 Member For: 14y 6m 19d Gender: Male Posted 18/09/10 09:25 AM Share Posted 18/09/10 09:25 AM Hey guys, as stated the Cats blocked so im needing a replacement my question is if I do this and get the center muffler removed do I need to get a retune if its a Hiflow cat? Its just that im still stuck with a series one flash box so a retune will smash the pocket as ill need to buy an xcal 3 on top. I know I could always just ram a pipe through the current one but the fine for gettin busted would exceed a full exhaust system I imagine.Ba series 1 - Stocky with flash tune from CV performance.

But yea if I do have a stuffed cat I also have an Xcal 1 and would need an X3 and a retune and maybe the port/wastgate mod to controll the boost, so it could end up being a very $$$ situation..Right now I'd go the cheapo route and get a std cat off the forum if possible, wack it in..

The cars a daily driver so need something to get me by till I can fork out the dosh on a hi flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
