the way most guys look at a cat is to bang on it and see if they hear the substrate banging around in there. This doesn't always work. The best way to tell is to measure the inlet and outlet temps of teh cat with a pyrometer. If the OUTLET temp is the same or LOWER than the INLET temp, you have a bad/blocked cat.

my positives outweigh my negatives, so I'm good Besides, I don't see the point of having ratings. I could care less about them, as you can tell by my smart remarks in alot of stupid threads with stupid people asking stupid questions
