I'm getting ready to order a GReddy Sp exhaust and I wanna gut my cats. How many cats does the celi GT have and how on this board makes test pipes? Also, where should I plug in the EGT gauge? I heard leanest cyl on the header.

If you want to gut the cats, you won't need a test pipe...
If you don't have a converter, you will have one cat just below the exhaust manifold (under the hood), and another under the car. If you wnat to remove the converters completely, you'd need a header and a test pipe. I pulled the secondary converter off my car myself and had a muffler shop make the test pipe back to my exhaust. Cost me $50.00 cash. As for EGT location, as close to the head on your hottest (leanest) cylinder as is possible, imo. You won't get the benefit of knowing what the entire engine is doing, but you will be able to monitor the most crucial cylinder for impending damage. http://www.stevetek.com/R-EGTprobeLocation.html http://www.teamrip.com/electronics/masc1th...upleinstall.htm (Thermocouple Location section) |
