I have nothing but the best to say about Perrin Performance's HFC

I dd/raced mine for over 36xxx miles w/ no CEL at all. Plus the thing weighs next to nothing compared to the stocker, and you can see right through the catalyic plates - how's that for high flow?

props to Perrin for such an awesome product!

Later, Ken
I meant doesn't do anything for HP. Emissions isn't something we test, but one at least gets rid of the stink! Basically we see X amount of HP with Gt3076R cars with no cats, and runing 2 cats, or 1 still made the same HP at the same boost levels.

Havent gotten my car tuned yet, but the Defowler/Extender what ever you want to call it got rid of the Cell issue on my car. Driven a whole tank of gas out of it now with no issue. All types of driving.

Well from what we have seen using the cats we do (200cell) there is no issue with losing HP. So getting a 100cell cat is going to be louder, potentially smell funny, and for sure throw a CEL. Also milspec is no where near as good as calspec..........
California spec that is!

I'm currently shopping a hfc....I found the AMS...the UR...but many people seems to give great comment about the Perrin and HKS....BUT....

I can't find them alone....they always come with the downpipe...and I don't want the DP.

And...anyone have comments about the TurboXS and T1R high flow cat?!?!?!?!

Anyone having any success with a good reasonably priced HFC?

Sorry for only reading the first page, hope i didnt miss anything significant to your first post.

I have used both the test pipe and hi flow cat from ETS, no SES/CEL light. I would recommend the ETS HFC.

ultimate racing

I've been running the ultimate racing test pipe for 60k and haven't thrown and CEL once. I am thinking of switching to the UR high flow cat because i am tired of the extra noise and the smell. Gets old after awhile for a daily driver. I put up with it for 60k. Will i need a reflash to change back to HFC? Anyone?

We have a catted option w/o extended o2 sensor. The J-bung style o2 sensor pulls the sensor out of stream which gives it a different reading than the primary sensor preventing it from throwing check engine lights.

Thanks!

I have the same pipe above, installed, for about 8k miles without a CEL. Also, no stupid vibrations or rubbing. ETS ftw
