please enlighten me on my cat stuff (see pics)

[*ZenithalRavage*]

Hey guys, thank u VERY much for the pictures and info !!

But !! Too bad, found out today that the rings were not the cause of the rattle and that it probably is a thingy in the cat

hmm.... what am I going to do........
Again I'm thinking of replacing the cat with straight pipe, even if it were just to get rid of the rattle, grrr...
Jeffers, where did you get those flanges? I would need those if I want a config with which I can easily swap the straight pipe with cat and back (if I can't get through our APK without my cat).
It's either that, or get a different (race) cat or live with the rattle...... :wacked:

For parts I recommend www.totsteile.ch It is a swiss page. Tots is a nice guy and he is also giving good advices. On hi spage are some pictures of the hoses. Unfortunately he's sold out on your parts.

Here's another (more clear) picture of the splitter from a 3B engine.

Hmm.... judging by my pictures, do you think my downpipe is still the original one? It seems like it's too long a straight for original, but it does look original? Do I make sense? :wacked:

[Jeffer]

Do you have the external dimensions of that racing CAT? I am most interested in the diameter at the biggest point and length. I though it would be difficult to fit other CATS due to the strange shape of the originals but maybe not?

:confused: Cannot find cat. specs sheet anymore!
Must be somewere in the "great mess" in my garage.
If I'll not find it I'll take some mesurments later on from... underneath the car

No problem at all, Leigh. I slip underneath my car so many times... I defintly need some professional jacks to lift my car a little easyer

Marco

P.S. does anyone know exactly how many cells x square inch do original 3B/ABY cats have?

[Dr H]

Cheers Marco

I know what you mean about a ramp, I'd kill for one (or a pit)

Here are my Sport Cat dimensions (roughly taken from underneath the car)

Cheers Marco you're a star

Marco

What make of CAT is yours? Any ideas on cells per inch of the matrix?

Cheers

Leigh

[Pisobiker]

It should be 150 cells per square inch.... but I need to find the specs sheet (so I'll also figure out the make) because they also sell 200 cells cats, so I'm no more 100% sure.
Probably need to go back to the tuner where I bought the item. Next week.

Ciao

Cheers Marco

I figure the 400 cell one I've found on EBAY is not a 'sports CAT' as it claims.

Do you have any clearance problems under the car with the race cat? Does it sit lower than the originals as they are shaped exactly to fit into the space in the floor pan?
