I've had both - get the Bonez. I don't think there's a better cat to be had for FC's.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could adapt a high-flow cat to replace the midpipe on a RB turbo-back? Is this even possible?

I love the power from the RB system, but with inspection day coming up I'm getting really paranoid - with no cat there's no way it'll ever pass, and I don't know any good shady inspection shops

I wish it was legal in Cali. But it's not, I believe.

Mindtrain or Bonez? How abut a different approach to making the decision – specs. Call and get the flow numbers for both cats. I tried that approach. Guess what I got? Excuses as to why the numbers aren’t available. When pressed, I was told the Bonez, "flows better than stock". Can anyone honestly say their product flows better than stock when they don’t know the flow numbers for either product? It’s like some manufacturers feel that they can just say "high performance" and the line to buy their product is supposed to form to the left. Would anyone buy a "high performance" car that didn’t have HP specs? I think not. If you call Random Technology and ask them about flow specs, they'll tell you that their cats flow over 500 CFM. If asked about pressure, they’ll tell you the cats have been tested at 28 inches of water (27.68 inches of water is 1 psi). Hmmm, what it does and under what conditions. With that information a consumer can make an informed decision.
