Catalytic Convertors

So just put a Pace Setter Exhaust/header system into my buddies car.

Does it make any difference if the Catalytic convertor is in there or not? Or will the straight pipe I made be good in place of that Convertor?

The cat is one of the biggest restrictions in the exhaust system. If you can get rid of it alltogether.

Lol, had no issues doing that, fabricated a peice of pipe using old exhaust tubing and the 2 flanges off the little cat on the original exhaust.

wow pacesetter is trash

I know a few guys running pace setter, they don't mind it... Why is pace setter trash?

because i knew one guy that had it and the coating started flaking and the welds broke down.

and ive heard that from several peple. maybe theyve upped their quality

I've not known anyone to have any issues with PS so, if I do, I'll let you know.

PS is a cheap companie.
There is nothing perticularly wrong with there equipment, but it is no where hear the quality of the RB stuff.

Rb?

racing beat

Ahh, they make a good dual tip exhaust? I'mma look into it here in the next few days...

They make an amazing system for the TII.

Its expensive tho, $1000+ for the full system.

That's not too bad, as my buddy just forked over 1100 for his pacesetter.... that included the header.... is that American or CND?
