Well, they sure aren't much to look at. lol

These are the cats to have if you want high flow(560cfm) and don't have much space to work with. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Do they make those in 2.5" and if they do, would you happen to have the part #.

Sorry, I don't know. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Here is there website. I don't think anything is listed about these converters though because they are relatively new. I'm sure they know. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I bet those are pricey.

Ummm.....just a little. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

BTW, Carol at Tbyrne gave me a very good deal on these bad boys considering what the retail price is. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

The reason I went with these is because I am going to run a full exhaust all the time and wanted some high flowing cats that were very short. I don't have a lot of room to run a cat or cutout the way I want to route the exhaust.

The exhaust will consist of AS&M 1 3/4" headers(for a truck) with modified 3.5" collectors, 3" cats(couldn't find a 3.5"), 3.5" pipes to a 3.5"->4" flowmaster y-collector, finished up with a 4" magnaflow race muffler with a turndown. It should flow relatively well behind the 422. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

So if there were a 2.5" cat, which I don't know (but wish I'dve bought instead of my 8100 series bullets <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> ) it would likely be part # 702500.

I'd contact RT and find out. They were surprisingly responsive when I emailed them about a different question. I had an answer in less than 24 hours!

Originally I planned on installing a single one of these at the end of the y. Given this converters flow rate, will a single one in this location create a substantial bottle neck? Also does anyone know what a 3" pipe flows at 28" ?

Thanks

A single RT would be too big of a restriction. A 3" single open pipe flows around 940cfm at 28"

Yes, the part# for the 2.5" in/out is 702500. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

These cats are made with a metallic substrate, like Euro/Japan cats... Won't meltdown like USA ceramic substrate cats...

I bought a pair <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> $221 each.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

I've installed one in my Mufflex drivers side downpipe already & still have RASP, on this side. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> It's only half as bad as before.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> I'm thinking that the high flow rate has something to do with RASP...
