Good To Be Back!!!
Well, X-Mas break is over, so i am back to being a forum junkie!! Over the break all I got around tot doing was buying a TII hood and gutting my cat. It rocks to be back to the forum I love so dearly!!!

How'd the car sound after gutting? The convert I just picked up definitly has the pre and main cat clogged (you can shift @ 1500rpms - it has that much back pressure :D ).
Just don't want to get too lound on the convertbile as it will be my new daily driver. Thanks -- vaughnc |
It sounds more "full", not rice at all. My girlfriend said it is a little louder, but it is not too bad. Be prepared for a cut in bottom end torque, but the top end it quite a bit better. Warning, I had to drop the cat, and the split pipe coming from behind it to drop the cat! It took me 5 hours total for the whole job! Once I got the cat off, I just took a screwdriver and cleaned out all of the crap inside. Good luck!

Do you have a downpipe installed removing the pre-cat? The pre-cat helps quite it down as well (but causes too much backfire when it gets clogged).
I was thinking of adding the downpipe & gutting the main cat. It helps a HUGE amoun in the Turbo II and the drop in low end torque wasn't that bad. The TII I don't let rev below 2000rpms, but the convert will accelerate off the line in 2nd gear :D Surprising since the convert has an 8K line and the TII has a 7K redline. |
