Just like the title says, I'm looking to add cats to my current set up for a couple of reasons. Right now, I'm running stock manifolds, o/r xpipe and Borla stingers. Everything else on the car is bone stock. No pulley, no tune....stock. The gas smell is horrible and i hate to even say it, when I get on it, it's just so damn loud. Like really raspy loud. I can't even hear my supercharger at WOT, lol. After speaking with my local shop my options are to buy some high-flow cats and weld them into the xpipe or buy a whole new catted midpipe. I'm leaning towards just buying the cats but I read somewhere that ceramic cats aren't good for forced induction cars and that you should go with the metallic substrate ones. Any suggestions? American Muscle and LMR both sell a number of options but wanted to ask your opinions.
Anybody here ever weld in just cats? If so did it solve the issue with the strong gas smell and rapsy exhaust tones?
