Been contemplating doing this for a while, yet after watching this and having a better understanding of how it all works...., not so sure.

I wouldn't want to breathe in the fumes, or follow behind someone with my windows down.

I have a feeling a 100 cell cat doesn't have any of the fancy $100,000 a pound stuff in it, lol.

I tend to agree with you Dillz on that one. Doubt the fraud factory one does either, as it would break the bank. Maybe it's stuffed full of bananas....(just about as dear) Seriously though can someone in the know confirm what is in most 100c and std cats?

Did read about cats being stolen off cars in the states, for the precious metals. Hoping someone steals mine and does a good job re-welding it up afterwards :dontknow:

You don't cop a 10k fine on the spot. If you get pulled over for flames/EPA just say your engine was running sh*t so must have blown it out, sh*t happens.

You only get the fine if u rock up to an EPA inspection with no cat. So just swap your cat with a mates for the inspection.

Ps did u guys use a press to get it out or will a hammer + chizzle do the job.

Also if you bash out cat + no middle muffler will it be too loud? Cheers

I have no cat on my split dump 3.5in xforce system with a straight through generic rear muffler also fitted as my 4sp auto BA Turbo and with no mods to the turbo, a full Rapids 3.5in IC kit with 4in intake and 60lb injectors...

I had a tune done in Townsville last year during the stinker of summer and the car was happy with nearly 360rwkw but the boost wasn't as it was up at around 21psi ish from memory. Tune was pulled back to about the 320's and the boost was still high though at around 18psi it proved that the turbo now needs attention.

As far as the note goes though it is deeper and louder but by how much I am not sure? I do like the note although it has more droning inside when cruising at speed limits.

I can take a db reading from inside and outside the car if I remember next time!

So the ability of controling a set psi via a tune to suit the see through cat, a standard turbo will suffer with fluxuations?

Noise isn't a big issue for me.
