I spoke to MAGIC performance, who offered to supply their 4' cats for $210 delivered if 10 are bought at once.

BOLT ON VERSION NOW AN OPTION FOR $260 DELIVERED(Bolt onto 3inch exhaust)

GROUP BUY CLOSED

Retail value is $300

Fitting can be done at the MAGIC performance workshop for $90, so if you get it fitted there it will cost you $290 all up.

The workshop is in Brookvale, Sydney

Im sure you all know about the cats, if not, they are the best type you can buy, with coated stainless steel mesh inside.

They are CARB compliant

problems with keeping the temp sensor fitting, read last page!

5 inch version also available, for $450 (retail is $550 for these)

Some info from MAGIC themselves about the cats:

they have a similar design as the catco metal cats, so performance would be comparable. although you should read up and make up your own mind if you are worried.

Either way you wont find a higher flowing cat than one of this design, may it be a catco or a magic cat (stainless steel mesh inside)

I assume that this is the 3" pipe/4" body type. I need the 4" piping/5" body version.  Any chance of getting this?

Hey mate, i rung them to ask for you, and they will offer the 5' version you want for $450, the retail is $550.

I need a new cat.  Where's the thread from a while ago with a write up on these 4" magic cats?

So are you in for one?

If you follow the link in my first post which points to a thread on nissan silvia you can read all you need to know about them, straight from MAGIC performance themselves.

thanks for the link, always hard sifting through search results! that has the zoom result in it too if people want to see.

Do Magic install the cats and if I supply them a front/dump pipe will they also install that?

siksII: I dont have money untill 2weeks later Would that be ok?

im sure they could install it for you, just give them a call.

normal install is $90

about the two weeks, i will close it as soon as we get 10 people, or at the end of next week, sorry!

I might also change my dump/front pipe and get one of BATML's twin pipes. + magic cat (maybe)... still thinking...

that would be good, well maybe you could buy the magic cat now before the group buy ends, then buy the pipe later so at least u save some money on the cat.

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
