easy peasy . as you are suppling the cat . does it come with flanges or do you need them welded on? will remove old one and refit new one with flanges and fit to car for $100 or $120 if i have to modify cat to fit

kermit

I'll need someone to fit my cat when it arrives...if it ever arrives :)

- Hey everyone.

I just got my car back from Kermit today.

He fitted/modded an exhaust I purchased from ebay to fit my R32 GTR - with a 3 inch hi-flo cat I purchased locally. He custom fitted some flanges to fit the job etc.

I must say, the job was well done, although it took a bit of extra work (by fault of the car) - the fit/finish was a top job all done in a respected time.

Kermit : it sounds 10 times better now, I can actually hear the turbo spool up now - and no - unwanted backfire :O It pulls better etc than before!

I thoroughly recommend the work of Kermit 100% - feel free to PM me for more information.

oh yeah - and Kermit's GTR - is tidy as! - and goes hard :O

  • 2 weeks later...

All you would have to do is put it back in , they would just give you a yellow sticker and you would put it back before you go over. i wouldnt reccommend it but then again i wouldnt recommend smoking either....

kermit

kermit u wouldnt recomend a cat replacement for astreetu used car correct ? just found out the fines involved if caught? just wanted to make my car sound meaner realy quiet atm

oh u can put it back in easy ? i thought it was a welded piece, well once i get my turbo and new engine mods in i wont be driving it much at all most likeyl weekends only, il be getting another car within the next month or so, i might consider it if its eay to take off and on

would cops often check under the car for a cat ? or mainly the carbon build up on the rear ?

i dont have a cat and i get no carbon build up on my rear bumper and the cars white! but i also do wash my car often soo maby thats why.. soo if you take care of your car you'll be right..

as for cops getting under your car well i HIGHLY doubt it.. its only the pits guys that will spot it

i have a carbon build up but im too lazy to polish it off ( im too hard core ). cops have never looked under my car even when i get pulled for being noisy. takes couple of hours to make , depends on rusty nuts and bolts etc and if cat sensor is seized as i refuse to cut it off ( cut it out instead then it is at least still there just not used).

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
