Will potential power be power reduced? Yes. More Importantly your turbo will not be able to produce boost as "efficiently". This will result in increased lag and higher turbo temps. You can pick up second hand decent CATS for <$200. It's worthwhile investment which you will never have to touch again.

hmm interesting, you guys would be right hmmm awell cat it is then :) still the go ahead will be known date from friday arvo once i get comp/leakdown test done

So far so good, i mean its not consuming oil or turning it black before 5000 kms of moderate driving, not blowing smoke of any sort, so i can see from the small picture it should be fine, the large picture well will be known on friday guys ;)

I guess suggestions would be very much appreciated on the catco cats from bosimporting, which one would be ample for my needs also results if any would be great aswell cheers guys

Ok so my compression values are in and leak down values what do you guys think:

Cyl1: 155 8%

Cyl2: 155 9%

Cyl3: 150 10%

Cyl4: 155 12%

Cyl5: 150 12%

Cyl6: 155 9%

Since last dyno made 178.9 rwkws before front pipe install so still running standard front pipe and dump

Also did power run whilst doing comp values to see if still in tune, seems that it is and with the new front pipe being the 3" complete front and dump comes to a new value of 197.3 rwkws.

The difference in IT's was 39 before and new of 41 with this one

So i think it would be safe to say that my project should be done mid november now :laugh: woohoo

Cheers

No mention of boost controller?

Assume you've already got one, but if not, you need to ensure you have something that will reliably hold boost if you're looking to push that amount of power, particularly on std internals...

Boost spikes = very bad news on std internals.

A few to consider...

Greddy Profec B Spec II (I have one of these - works well)

Apexi AVCR

Turbosmart Eboost II

Was running the hybrid boost controler. but have found its in effecient at holding bosot, although the hks turbo has an addjustable actuator on it i may just use that at the moment instead for boost control and later move to a better brand controller, will let you know how i go and keep you guys updated

The two of the latter ones best bet i say, pending your power goal, and big difference in prices. will post dyno results next week when all done, On another note, regarding the highflow cat, did anyone notice a Sound drop, either im going deaf(I dont think so) but have noticed that since i put the cat on, my exhaust note/loudness has droped dramatically, quiet to compare against what it was?? Go figure

Cheers devils

Me either, I'm torn between a 2835proS, the 3037proS, and the GT3076R, so atm all dyno results will help me decide.

Maybe your old stock cat hollowed itself out and was basically functioning like a punched out cat. So when you chucked the hi flow cat on, you put a bit more restriction back into the exhaust system and thus the drop in noise. It shouldnt be that noticeable tho imo even if ur cat was 100% hollow

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
