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?

Re: Catalytic Convertors

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

Re: Catalytic Convertors

They make an amazing system for the TII.

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

Re: Catalytic Convertors

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