Ok, I'm a wimp, I'd rather look into a high flow cat converter than a test pipe, so shoot me

What high flow cats are out there? (Besides Random Technologies, RRE's cat with no flanges) Are there others available besides these two?

Does anyone have any experience with either of these two (are they straight through? How much more SHOULD they flow compared to a stock one?) or any other high flow cats?

Any info would be good, for some strange reason I'm thinking about one of these for the future. Something about my car not being fast enough.

AHP has bolt on for GS-T, so you would need to cut and weld the flange at a different angle.

I talked to them about my custom piping and exhaust and they said they would make a set up for NT high flow cat if they had astock cat to get the angles off of, same with cat-back piping.

Cat back piping for a GST is a direct bolt on for a NT. Cat is probally also the same.

Cat is the same.

Go to any muffler shop and see if they sell one. A lot of them do.

Oh, I wimped out as well. I am running a 2.5" dp, 2.5" Random Tech cat, and a 2.77" exhaust. I actually want to pass emissions in GA. Of course it failed anyway.

I thought the flange ate the rear of the cta was at a different angle between the NT and GS-T? huh... must be loosing my mind.

Okay Im from Iowa and we dont have emission testing.(atleast thats to my knowledge *wink*wink) Is it safe to just remove and drill out the cat or modify it some way with a straight pipe, and then reinstall it??? Will I get much out of this or is it just a lot of work. 97 RS, Iceman CAI, Mozart 5" muff... Im not worried about the cops just my engine...

GST cat is different. The flange to the downpipe is at a different angle. Has to be cut and re-welded. I have a 2.5" cat from Extreme Motorsports. Its just a generic cat with true 2.5" openings.

I just bid on one of those myself too.

The auction isn't up for another couple of days, so I hope none of you studs gets into a ebid battle with me. I'm the bidder at jboltz@warpnet.net. Jut wait for the next one two days after that. They keep reselling them one after the other. We can all corner the market on OBX high flow cats at a cheap price! (heheh)

is it still possible to shoot flames out the exhaust if you have a high flow cat versus a test pipe (i know, i know). I mean with the use of a rev limiter like I have on my bike.

Did some checking, and it looks like airmass makes a bolt on high flow cat for our cars, that is if the info I got is correct.

About the flames from the exhaust, I doubt it. That would defenitely cook the cat, and it would probably snuff out the flames before they reached the muffler.
