Chris-p Posted 23February, 2012 Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 Has anybody had any experience with replacing the standard Cat converters on a 993 with sports type cats that have half or even less the restriction? Steve Porter, you are the exhaust guru for 993's was this what you did or was it a full cat bypass? Interested in anybody's comments on this topic.

Guest vas930 Posted 23February, 2012 Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 I think Steve may have gutted the stock system. Ahhh, just buy a turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevepGT3 Posted 23February, 2012 Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 Tried a full CAT Bypass Which sounded great but the car ran like a bag of shit even with 2 x rechipping. what I have now is the standard cats with modified mufflers. the car runs perfectly and sounds great I will include a link to the mufflers I am running http://www.fdmotorsports.net/index_files/Page848.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Man Posted 23February, 2012 Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 The Fister mufflers have an incredible following in the US and a great reputation. Be aware that you will require donor mufflers as a changeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-p Posted 23February, 2012 Author Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 Thanks Steve, and Toto for the advice, much appreciated. Steve, have you made any suspension mods to your car. I have been reading a bit about the Bilstein HD P8 setup using the standard sports springs which seems to get a pretty good rap on rennlist. Interested to hear what you have done to yours. Thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-p Posted 23February, 2012 Author Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 Steve, how did you go about it the change over. Did you have to send your mufflers to the US to get modified? C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevepGT3 Posted 23February, 2012 Report Share Posted 23February, 2012 Steve, how did you go about it the change over. Did you have to send your mufflers to the US to get modified? C No, I did not want to mess with the originals (just in case) so I purchased a set on ebay in the states for a few hundred and had them shipped to F.D. who did their magic . Totally pain free, F.D are great to deal with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
