Mind you I don't think a high flow cat will pass emissions either so meh. Some people just gut it so its not so obvious to the po po Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90778-hi-flow-cat-or-deleted-cat-converterb-series/#findComment-1551201 Share on other sites More sharing options...

camdawgs Member 49 Member For: 13y 4m 29d Posted 01/07/15 01:08 PM Author Share Posted 01/07/15 01:08 PM Had a sudden powerloss over the past few weeks...took it in...got sensors and some switches fixed up...was running insanely good for a week or so...now gone back to what it was previously...not 100% sure it is the Dented Cat converter...but signs point to that it is.Needs to be changed if it is the case Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90778-hi-flow-cat-or-deleted-cat-converterb-series/#findComment-1551307 Share on other sites More sharing options...
boost69 Donating Members 737 Member For: 19y 10m 28d Posted 01/07/15 09:51 PM Share Posted 01/07/15 09:51 PM For a couple of hundred dollars you might as well get an aftermarket high flow cat...(drive in, drive out, roughly $250 to $350 depending on the cat from my experience)...Though getting a high flow cat also means you will have to get a tune, which means more dollars there too...Maybe try and find a stock cat from the wreckers...but from what I have seen, genuine cats from the wreckers cost as much as after market high flow cats...but at least you won't need to get a tune...(I'm assuming the whole purpose is to spend as little as possible on the car...)

Anyway...why not try any of your local mechanics or tuning shops as they will have piles of exhausts out the back in a bin...Buy them a carton or less for the complete mid section with cat and be done with it!!!
