SUPRAGTE Forums Junkie Location: North Sydney Registered: May 2002	Re: Cat converter legal or not? Wed, 25 September 2002 12:18 Guess i'll be having your left testicle but frankly i dont want it!!!!!!! How can it not pose a restriction! Look at the damn thing. Its a honeycomb chunk. I'm all for the environment, i write software for buildings to give vast energy savings and i enjoy doing my bit for the environment, dont get me wrong there. Please explain to me why whilst i was getting a dyno tune we found something in my exhaust was restricting further power. I had a custom 3inch mandrel bent exhaust with straight through muffler and custom dump pipe. Also had a hi-flow cat converter on it. Basically its a very good, free flowing exhaust. Removed the cat and put a straight pipe in. Adjustments were made to the a/f ratios as now the car ran leaner because the system flowed better(this also tells you it restricts). No timing adjustments on the microtech were made which make large power gains. So 270rwhp >>>>>300rwhp on same dyno with the change of a cat. Thats about a 40hp gain! So they dont affect power on a dyno hey? Which dyno do you use? [Report message to a moderator]
