![]() The question of cats keeps popping up with ref to fitting different engines post iva to circumnavigate emmisions. I dont understand why when cats can be fitted anyway. I know they are clumsy looking gadgets but things like this http://www.americanmuscle.com/pypes-...converter.html are available so why do the job twice

![]() I'm not planning to fit anything different post iva, but the cats that came with the donor I've got on ebay priced up a bit, if they sell then I'm happy, if not then I'l keep them as a backup.
Must admit those in your link look nice tho ![]() |

![]() Stay off that link as it has a trojan on it as my Kaspersky went mental on it.
What about one like this and much cheaper! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HIGH-FLOW-...50827619065%26 |

![]() It's not just the fitting of a cat usually you need fuel injection, a programable ECU etc
The cat also saps a fair bit of power, if you can do without at IVA then you have a much easier ride when tuning engines after and still complying with the emmisions required on the V5 for MOT. |

![]() Hi,
I have to disagree with that. I remember in the 90's we use to sell a lot of catalyst converter replacement tubes (called “Tube Afrique” in France, I never really understood why ![]() Just my little experience, but no offence of course ![]() Bye

But if you don't need one for the IVA then don't make life harder than it is. |
