supra matt Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Hi all where would be the best place to fit my new 3" universal street race cat? Would it be better as close to the turbo as poss or in the middle pipe? Or dose it not really matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I would put it in place of the original 1st cat as they need to be quite hot to work properly, that's if the info you got didn't say where to locate it. How can you just put it anywhere, do you have to get the pipework made up to suit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranz Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 As its really there to make sure you pass the MOT it will need to be close enough to the turbo to actually get hot at idle & start converting the exhaust gasses. But also it doesn't want to be too close & get so hot at high power that it melts! At a guess the position of the first cat on the stock system would be a good starting point as already mentioned.

supra matt Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 Well its turned up , next question will it be ok to wrap it with exhaust wrap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 No, it'll get hot enough without wrapping it, and it needs to go as near the turbos as you can reasonably get it. It doesn't look like any "race" cats i have used, the core still looks very dense and restrictive, who makes it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
