What Cat Should I Get?

[SargeRX8]

I was told my stao I need a high flowing cat. What should I get? Xforce 100cell metal cat? Catco ceramic high flow? Who has a metal cat and what did it cost. I would gut my cat and weld a pipe in there but I'm abit iffy about that. I'm in nsw and was quoted 320 for the metal xforce but I heard bad things.

Lobokka 100 cell metal cat on ebay

^yeh 100 or 200 cell cat

[ahh 33 s2]

i just got a "PCP" metal ebay cat, 4" in and out with a 5" body, 100cpi 215 delivered

[wolverine]

Venom seem to supply quite decent quality 5" body 100 cell metal with 3" flanges for $250 delivered.

[SargeRX8]

Are these tested and tried brands? I've looked through alot on ebay and they all seem generic with a brand stamped on them. Venom stands out as it is tested and street legal which the others mention nothing of. I'm going to ditch the xforce because apparently they too are chinese untested, illegal stuff. 5" body sounds tasty too.

[wolverine]

I have the venom sitting in the garage if you want to have look before buying. I can take it to work which is closer to your place if it helps.

It has much better materials, welding etc than my last one that is rattling itself to death. Ceramic biscuit fail on the old one.

where do you find venom cats with 3" flanges at that price?

[Pal]

interested too, in the market 4 one in august

[wolverine]

Send George a message directly thru ebay or at his website. He was great to deal with. I paid the money Wednesday (cleared Thursday) and the cat arrived on the doorstep on Monday.

[75coupe]

it has the 100cpsi 5" with 3" in/out at $230 on his site, does that mean he'll put flanges on it and post it for $20?

sounds too good to be true...

[wolverine]

Yes flanges and posted for $250.

Just shoot George an email and I can't see why the price would change in the last week or so.

There was no temp sensor port which I didn't think to ask for or check whether it came with one.

[SargeRX8]

I just ordered and payed for a 3" in out bolt on to R33 GTST 5" body 100cell cat for $250. SMS'd him, sent me an invoice and it gets mailed out in the morning.

[75coupe]

what do people do about the temp sensor port if the cat doesnt have one....???

[SiR_RB]

You tell him to put one on

Can he do these cats with 3.5" flanges?

[SargeRX8]

He can do 3.5" flanges. He has bolt on kits suitable for most cars ready to go. Mine is already in post and I payed 12am this morning!

I asked him about the egt sensor port he said they don't come with them but they can be modded to suit. He didn't mention if he does it, nor did I ask. If I wanted it, I would just get a high tensile thick nut, same thread as the sensor, drill a hole in the end of the cat then weld it ontop. Wouldn't be hard. Then again, my old r33 did not even run the temp sensor.

[wolverine]

The R33 doesn't need the temp sensor so I just pushed it back thru the grommet.

I think R32's need the sensor (happy to be corrected).
