I've got a xforce cat on the car at the moment which sucks, and i want to replace it with a venom 5" cat which has 3" inlet and outlet.

My car has a 3" dump pipe to a 3.5" cat back exhaust, will the cat bolt up fine to the 3.5" catback?

And would i likely be able to just bolt it up in place of the old cat without having to modifly the exhaust height or anything?

I'm going to say no, welding will need to be involved.

Why go from 3.5 to 3 to 3.5

If you want venom go > https://www.mrcperformance.com.au/venom-exhaust-stainless-100-cell-high-flow-3.5-cat?gclid=CjwKCAjwiaX8BRBZEiwAQQxGxyLrz7Uhgi0evqY_SFXQ12s0NaB7AXUVbi-dwFF1FAYwwkxrk8L8ixoCS5AQAvD_BwE

Ok thanks, they offer a bolt-on cat https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3-VENOM-High-Flow-Cat-Suits-Nissan-Skyline-R32-R33-R34-GTST-GTR-S13-C33-A31-/251462134106 was hoping it might just bolt up and good to go.

My current dump pipe is 3" to a 3.5" exhauat, didn't see the 3.5" cats but rather avoid going to a exhaust shop if i can. But 3.5" would be better. 🤔

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
