sounds reasonable :)

Maybe have it where you can bolt on a regular axle back, and have them send ya a pipe that goes straight back with no muffler :)

Is it legal to take out the stock cat? How is the long term reliability of the hi-flow cats?

a setup like I just mentioned above to 60443? :) I have my magnaflow muffler, and the sound is good like it is... but as I plan to do a power adder later on, it would be nice to have the free flowing exaust for race day.

I don't need anything polished etc, I'm looking to keep the cost down as much as possible.

Unless you plan on going over 300HP the 2.25 exhaust will be good for turbo as well.
That way you won't have to spend the money twice.

My exhaust technically is NOT because I did not incorporate a cat. I run a celfix to eliminate any codes. That way passing smog isn't an issue.
BUT the exhaust I am making for you guys WILL have a cat if you want one and that will be perfectly street legal. You would be surprised how well the cat flows. It will not hinder performance.

The high flow cats are just as reliable if not more reliable than some oem makes. I do have to say however that the toyota cats are very good.
They do flow quite well. The ones I use are stainless units inside and out that will never rust. Unlike some of the "summit" racing stuff like CATCO that isn't worth the flanges they are welded to.
Now as far as legality is concerned, you are not allowed to remove the stock cats by federal law. BUT I have just changed the entire "Exhaust Line" Meaning I did not cut the cat out and run straight pipe. I am replacing parts.
Really I'm stretching the rules a bit, but so does 90% of the aftermarket community.
I will eventually run a cat once the turbo setup is finalized. There isn't a good argument that anyone can present to say that they shouldn't be on the car.

I will have finished the jig this week as well so that reproducing the exhaust would be simple.

The one we will be selling will have 1 High Flow cat, followed by the O2 bung for cat efficiency, high flow resonator, mounting brackets for stock hangers, and SS flanges. The tubing will be high quality 304 SS fully tigwelded for durability and quality.

If anyone is interested please let me know. From the header up to the axle back (midpipe with cat and resonator) is $500. Axle backs will vary in price as design and materials will vary with the client.
I am interested as long as it is completely "bolt-on". I would seriously consider buying it in early April as I am currently finishing up my "Tercel JDM Project"

However I would also like the "axle back" section using a resonator instead of the muffler with the same diameter (2.5") and ss piping.
How much more for the axle back plus total shipping to 08054?
Thanks.
