I live in New Hampshire and there is no emission testing for I believe 1995 and below so the only reason I wouldn't purchase is if it would hurt performance lack of back pressure or somthing to that effect.Would this hurt my car,I realize the cats main reason for existence is emissions but I also know it helps with back pressure for something also.......anyone??? I know it's cheap,piece of **** but it is stainless and with no emissions,well you know.Thanks

 

id like to know this also

 

thats not a cat..its basically a resonated testpipe ,,a straight through resonator..

So then you have one and will give us your opinion on how it works???

 

it's alot better than your stock one if your asking for performance, I have one and it makes a good difference..

i had one on my old lsvtec crx..but back when i bought it off ebay it was called a "testpipe" ,,but all the sudden its called high flow cat..like i said though its not a cat,,its just a resonated test pipe..its good quality if thats what you're asking,,its not just some piece of **** that falls apart in 2 weeks..

 

Will it make the exhaust sound annoyingly loud, or how? Describe if possible.

 

a regular test pipe will be annoying and loud, but a resonated test pipe will give you a different sound, it depends tho on if your exhaust is already resonated and if your muffler is straight threw or chambered.

 

i had a 2.25" tubing, 22" resonator, and chambered muffler with resonated tip so it was as queit as stock (under 5200revs atleast)..

the sound depends on everything else ,,engine,header,exhaust tubing diameter and wall size,muffler,etc,etc//

That's not even a cat..

 

Performance wise it will be better, but emissions wise it will not.

 

basicly act as a resonated ''test pipe''

 

i have this "cat" on my b18a hatch. where i live we don't have emmision testing but all the emission components have to be visually in place. it looks like a cat enough cuz i just passed inspection with it on. thats the only reason i put it on. did improve sound a tad over a staight "test pipe".

 

Yeah, I wish the price for a cat is that cheap....
