Your standard type of High Flow Cat is usually a ceramic internal type, where the dearer Catco, X-Force and BPM 'Metal' or 'Metallic' Cats use a stainless biscuit core and flow a lot higher.

There is NOTHING wrong with X-Force Cats as above, dependent of course on the vehicle and its level of modification.

For the price, I don't think you can go wrong, and I have used one on my old GTS-T and had no problems at all with a significant performance gain.

I would say depending on your level of mods and how far you want to go... go a metal one... I bought a ceramic highflow... put it on... previously I had a gutted cat (straight through- all the inside bits taken out for max flow) going from that to xforce's ceramic was a massive step down...car lost a lot of power... but once again.. depends on how powerful your car is.

Adam

I might be able to help on this matter. I have an xforce ceramic bolt in cat on my car at the moment. I recently bought a "metalcat" weld in cat. getting it welded in on friday, getting the car re tuned on saturday, so ill post up a before and after dyno graph. I wouldnt imagine a BIG difference in power, but we shall see.

i got full turbo back exhaust with x force high flow cat, think flow was rated at 570-600.... very good upgrade, very noticable power gain great sound.... the cat was about $150

300ish extra cfm can flow thru the cat now, should probably see a bit, it will probably be noticeable.. cant wait for the results anyway

xforce make a cat that is about double than close to double that flow and price too, check to see if you got the oval type? or the higher flow racing cat (round barrel style)

I agree that it depends on mods, i have a hi flow (hi flow front vg30 rear) blitz fmic, jjr split one piece dump with a 3" the rest of the way, apart from the cat, that was still the factory 2.5", put the x-force ceramic cat in today, got rid of a mis i had (although i also did the cam belt no idea if that would have helped) power is now more crisp, boosts a little earlier and harder and is also a little quieter when idling, i would say they are a good thing, that being said my next engine im hunting for 300-350rwkw and will probably upgrade or remove the cat completely.

WRONG!

Have a full xforce exhaust, including cat. Running over 400hp on an rb25 for 3 years. What more could you ask for??? Flows well, good value for money.

Not wrong.

I put a 3" supposedly "high flow" Xforce cat in to go over the pits and it was crap. Loss of power and response, felt like crap to drive, took it out as soon as I got home.

I was trying to push 3L worth of exhaust gasses through it though.

Which cat are you running? a "High flow"? or a "Race" cat?

And if you went from a stock exhaust to a full Xforce exhaust then yes, it is going to feel a lot better but you have nothing but a stock exhaust to compare it to.

^^^ agreed

I took my HI FLOW x-force cat out for de-cat and perfromance gain was heaps better.

I haven't tried the race cat one with higher flow but i am sure they would be alot better much like a de-cat
