I purchased the high flow metal catco one and I am quite happy with it. I also got the dump pipe but have to make a slight alteration before I can fit it, so I just running the catco cat with standard front pipe and apexi cat back exhaust on for now and I feel there is an improvement just from the high flow cat alone. Looking forward to having the front split pipe put on. :whistling:

I want to get the catco metal one, so PM me if you can organise another group buy for them through BATMBL, as I missed out on the last one and I think it was a decent saving.

I too got the 5 inch metal cat and the split dump pipe.

I figured for a little more money i'd never have to change it again, no matter what power levels i decided on aiming for. Also, your cat is always going to be the biggest restriction in your exhaust, so why not get the best one? An extra $200 now for a better cat when you've probably spent over a grand for the rest of the exhaust easy.

I notice a fair increase in power from the two together. Hard to say how much, but they say that to notice a change in power it would be in the range of 10-20kw more??

Also, the 5 inch cat (with the split dump) sits closer to the body of the car than the stock pipe and cat, but as it is bigger hangs about 1cm lower too (in my case). So no real difference, however it does scrape on my driveway sometimes (but so did my stock one.)

It was a perfect fit - and this included fitting it to a new trust pe2 catback as well - great products (cant stress that enough)

for those of you who got the large body catco...any clearance issues if your car is lowered? I'm thinking of getting the small body one...

i actually bumped my cat going over those nasty thin but high speed bump. so now i have a leak that i have to fix up. been over it many times before and all other ones with no issues, just decided to scrape on this occasion. i avoid that road now ..haha.

as for fit on a 33 its a very snug fit. my advice is to heat wrap the waste gate pipe before installing as its almost touching the brake fluid piping. if you have abs it'll be a pain in the ass to do after let alone without it in my case. O2 sensor is fine. Also had to modify my head shield bracket to get it back on.

if only i knew all this before hey..ah well. as long as you guys know now =)

i still stick by as the best money ever spent though :)

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)

      Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.

      Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
