your cats are 2.5" i have thought about trying to modify a set of 1500 cats to see if they will fit.

and thanks for the generosity.

 

hey, its the thought that counts! not everyone can push enough power to NEED dual 3" exhaust ill stick with dual 2.5" and be plenty happy with it. after i get some headers and ditch the cats anyway

 

thanks again.

 

I would call Magnaflow and tell them of your dilemma. At minimum, they should be getting you a new set of cats for free....and while they're at it, ask the what the hell is going on with their cats!!!

 

spoke with magnaflow... they suggested i mount them 24" from the collector. again space becomes an issue with my chassis.

and they CANT give me cats because i am in california.


i am going to add two more 14" cgs mufflers. might get a pair of SLP metal cats since they are 200 cells per inch and metallic. all of the magnaflows are 300 cells per inch, which is 50% more restrictive. i found some metal cats out of australia that are only 100 cells per inch...going to get more info.

also going to call random technology today.

the battle continues.....or just sell/part out the damn thing.

 

Any idea why the cats are blowing out? How's your tune? With proper tuning you can go catless and minimize the exhaust odor quite a bit...plus the smell is behind you, the person following you will have to deal with the smell

 

the cats are too close to the collector. I installed my magnaflows with ceramic internals after the trans crossmember and have had no issues i blew out my stainless works in one day at the collector.

 

do you have any photos? where did you mount the x-pipe?

 

yeah pics please. im gonna have the same problem here soon.

 

i am going to start with having the tune looked at.....no more money on cats until i verify its not too rich. i dont think it is...but who knows.
