I have the Ultimate Racing high flow cat, which uses a Catco core. You can almost see right through most of it. Light filters through it. It should flow pretty good.

Actually, we use Car Sound catalytic converters which are EPA and CARB approved. FYI, Car Sound is a subsidiary of Magnaflow.

I use some hi-flow catco's on a 300z and no problems to report. Matter of fact I rarely hear of any problems with any exhaust besides maybe some rust spots. I think people are always looking for the holy grail of exhaust systems. Just pick one!

I have the Catco with my 3" BR turbo back and it seems to work well.

i put a catco on my car about 12,000 miles ago and worked good for awhile. everything is now burnt out on the inside. a few weeks ago i noticed my exhaust smelling different and my cel was always on. i took the cat off and you could see right through it.
