Apex is developing a new Catalytic convertor they showcased one in use on public transport buses at the Tokyo Auto Salon ( I LOVE BEST MOTORING DVD'S) it interesting because on a Skyline that produced 900hp it would knock off 200hp so it would be good for 700hp isn't that Something ! :o i ain't jumping out of my seat seems over-rated


O don't buy the New Evo 8 in the US because it doesn't have Active Yaw Control and i dunno if you buy it as an option. Subaru is releasing a Sti but be warned Impreza's are highly sprung if you modify them you better know what you're doing - the US sti is a 2.5 liter (they wanted to increase the performance for the US market.

an English dude tuned his Evo 6 to over 800hp making it the fastest in the world. He wanted to prove that not only Skylines could go fast - someone forgot to tell him we already knew that. :o

It does make the exhaust a bit louder and I do have some decent HP gains. A car with forced air will benifit from having the cats gutted or removed. I run only 94 octane or higher in the cars and it burns clean. No nasty smell.

You dont just lose 1 second or more from your 1/4mile time from doing something as simple as removing the cat. Stop spending your money on a GS and just get a GSX.

Uhh, I think he has an Integra GS, not an Eclipse GS like I think you're thinking of.

Either way, what MPH did you guys run on your two runs where he ran a second quicker? Like R1 said, you won't see a second shaved from removing the cat, there are definitely other factors playing into that time.

we both have generic intakes off ebay and a BOMB tunable muffler.. i have 195/50zr15 tires he has 195/60r14.. i think the weight difference between the 14s and the 15s would be made up by the more traction i have with the Z-rated tires..
