35165, high flo cat? Posted by lx4life, Oct-17-02 11:55 AM
i was thinking about getting a high flo cat but i have heard my cel will kick on i really don't want that to happen cause i am sick of seeing my cel on now because of a bad cat. also does anyone know where i can get a cheap priced high flow cat or a cheap priced oem cat.thanks

Ebay has them for a fair price. I recently bought a SS one for about $60. It's more of a resonator since it's straight though without any sort of obstruction. It also nicely has the bracket hangars on there as well.
Lastly, I have a very cranky obd-2 98' car, and I have yet to have a CEL related to the downstream O2(after the CAT) with this new, very unobstructive Cat.
I bought the BOMZ racing cat here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1869260415

is there really any advantage to getting this if you are not turbo? (unless of course your stocker went bad and just want an upgrade)

i got an obx 65 on ebay too you can get a pacesetter for like a 120 there's not a big performance diff but if the stock is down i'd recommend it

You might aswell just gut your current cat for free. Since its bad anyway just gut it and do the resistor mod on the rear o2 sensor to make the CEL go off. Its a really easy mod and again the best part is that its free!!

Thats right, do what OZ_GS says. It will save you money and you will see an increase in performance. I have had a gutted cat for a long time without ever having my CEL light come on. But,if you have your EGR valve blocked off you might get a slight backfire once in a while.
