I need to replace my stock cat. I'm not looking for performance, but just a cost effective replacement. I found this on ebay (link below) Anybody tried this out? Will it most likely fail emmissions test?

they arn't worth is from what i read here most people get hiflow cats and get no performance and they fail quickly.

but hey they say it: "- Increase up to 8-15 hp!" so i say buy it!

 

I'm not looking for HP gains. Just looking for something to replace my old stock cat. Something cost effective, and legal that will pass emmissions test.

 

I was looking at those last night,i wonder if they are real cats or like a test pipe bacause i need a real one also

 

That's exactly what Iw as thinking. I was wondering if it was a test pipe...hopefully somebody has one.

 

Don't get it...it's just a hollow piece of shiney metal. It may increase 8-15 hp on an already 600+ hp turbo motor but will make our vq's lose a few hp from not enough back pressure. It may also make ur vehicle fail emissions testing...not sure about that one.

 

damn that's what I figured. I guess I'll have to find some other cheap alternative to teh stock cat.

 

It looks to be resonated.....

 

The guy hoesting the auction emailed me back. He said it's not a cat, and it may...or may not...pass emmisions. Well looks like it's simply a piece of ****. I guess I'll have to find something else.
