AutomodellistaGT Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 can t you buy a defunct cat from a breakers yard and smash all the bits out of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_aaron Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 ^^^^ thats all i've done, emptied the current cat out....although i think i will get a str8 pipe as it looks better and would ad a VERY slight deeper noise to it once it 'carbonised' lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutomodellistaGT Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 but you can argue "it was like that when i bought it" if youve got an innocent looking but empty cat there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JBM- Posted June 20, 2005 Author Share Posted June 20, 2005 some people have said that an empty cat sounds 'tinny' ??! what do people say to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 It does sound a bit tinny tbh, my CAT was on the way out on me scort so i smashed all the insides out on it and just left it. Sounds ok but obviously not as gd as a strait thru jobbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danzetec Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 can t you buy a defunct cat from a breakers yard and smash all the bits out of it?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The exhaust gases will mushroom round in the box and cause turbulant air-flow. not good for performance. Get a crap 1 from the breakers and get a tube welding in place of the box. Or just buy a proper 1, they're not that much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
