First off i have to give buschur two thumbs up for great service, quick delivery, and exhaust fits great. Took it out for a few long drives, and everything seemed ok-- does stink a little though- almost smells like antifreeze... anywho, i was doing a post inspection and noticed the hfc is welded backwards.. just my luck, this is par for the course with me-- always something it seems.

what do you think.. i don't want to put my stock back on. should i run it till i can get in touch with buschur??


tia,

Get in touch with buschur. It would be the best thing to do.

 

How is the Cat welded in if you received it ? When i received mine it was in pieces.. who did the welding?

 

So the "out" part is facing towards the downpipe?

 

yup..

on the buschur hfc. one side is flanged the other is slip fit. no way to put it on backwards.

If you have his slip fit turbo back, there is no flange, it's all slip fit. That is why I asked. If the "out" side is facing the downpipe then you will have to send it back to Buschur.

 

Really .. hm My High flow cat from Buschur is slip on both sides.. As a matter of Fact my Enitre exhaust other than the Turbo/DP connection is slip... So how do you have a half flang half slip DP... IS it 3"? Take a Pic i wanna see this and i still dont understand why you didnt get it unasembled?

 

I'm not sure if all of them have flanges now-a-days, but the DP and cat that I ordered in December were both flanged.... slip fit to the cat-back.

 

I bought mine last july and the whole thing was slip with 3" clamps... if your are using another shops parts , maybe thats the reason for the flanges... i just used the full TBE from buschur.. ?

 

they redesigned there systems slightly the cat now has a flange on one side that meets the dp

 

come to think about it, i totally forgot if i installed my cat the right way. I have been driving for over 2 years tho. I should double check...LOLz

 

Thats why i have never used the cat lolol
