"IMAGE" Twist design high flow cat

Has anyone tried one of these? I need to buy a catalytic converter when I swap my motor. They sell for a pretty decent price but I have learned that you get what you pay for.

Re: "IMAGE" Twist design high flow cat (dwnthehatch)

How much are they?

Are they "racing" cats?

This high quality all stainless direct fit high flow cat. has an internal twist design (inner tube new design with Spiral Funnel) to create spiral maximum airflow, U.S. Patened. This newly designed section allows the exhaust to flow faster as a Tornado effect, at the same time reducing the noise. This cat. will increase the torque and acceleration to produce instantaneous power. Specially, if you had installed an air intake system, it will suck more air into engine. Now! This is the type of high flow cat. will make exhaust flow faster to create more torque & HP.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Re: "IMAGE" Twist design high flow cat (Spade)

HOW the hell is this supposed to suck in more air thru your intake?? I can see increased scavenging effect maybe, but sucking more air in? Is this a new design where they hook up your cat after the air filter?

Looks like someone at the twizzler's candy factory had too much time on their hands.

Re: "IMAGE" Twist design high flow cat (volk ce28n)

I was thrown by the "sucking" statement also. I didn't realize that the other brands were that reasonable. I just need a cat that will do the job for a decent price.

you definitely get what you pay for. It looks like they spent more time chroming this thing than they did engineering it. But i could only imagine the incredible gains you would get if you had 2 of those and 2 tornadoes in jOOr intake. you'd get like 30 pounds of boost from that ****.
