Replacement Cat. Converter

Post by kration »

Hi,<P>I need to replace my Cat. Converter, as it has started blowing Image .<P>Welding is an option, but I am examining getting a replacement. Can a replacement cat improve performance?<P>I have browsed previous posts, but cannot find any definite recommendations. By-passing the Cat is not legal (as I understand it) in the UK. My back box is new so a whole replacement system is not really an option.<P>Any advice about replacing my cat (particularly in the UK) would be greatly appreciated.<P>kration<BR>=======================<BR>92 Black 1.8 V6

I recently hollowed out my cat, and it sounds and runs a LOT better now....yea it's "illegal", but we only have emissions every 2 years here, and who knows, it still might pass<P>------------------<BR>~'94 GS (Creek Blue Mica)
