Re: high flow cat

the o2 sensor throws a code. so is that cat i posted a link for what you were talkin about 97rs?

so the o2's go bad? cuz i had one throw a code not too long ago, but i replaced the o2 and everything was fine.. so i'm guessing my cat is still ok?

Re: high flow cat

if you would have gotten the code scanned it would have told you exactly what was wrong.

i did have it scanned, it said it was running lean in one of the banks.

O2s don't go bad when cat does. The one downstream of the cat sends a signal to the PCM saying the cat is bad. Depending on where it's hooked up, O2 sensor will have different function.

Re: high flow cat

they are garbage and go bad pretty quickly

I can vouch for that

Re: high flow cat

you will normally be able to hear a rattling coming from the cat once it goes bad.

my catco went bad after about a year and a half. im just going to gut it.

and i have a random technologies cat (i think thats what it is) thats going on my truck.

Well then. Extreme loss of power, misfires and such can be caused by bad cat. My '94 F-150 wouldn't hardly move, when it had a bad cat.

Re: high flow cat

Is there any difference in flow between the magnaflow and the carsound?

Re: high flow cat

Magnaflow makes other converters that are not caller car sound. If that makes you feel better.
