kirkklau, you should do this ^ and report back.

 

Green is WG pressure (hose from pressure source connected to EWG)

Blue is Solenoid at 100% WGDC or MBC fully closed (both had same result)

dead cheap cat.

game over man, game over! nothing like having a 90% or so blockage in your exhaust.

 

Holy crap!

Good catch, that's yet another reason to switch to TP!

 

How did the cat die or get clogged? What's it supposed to look like?

 

Could of been a bunch of reasons. Bad quality, defective, too hot, etc. It came to us like this so we have no idea how the car was running before.

We've never had any issues with quality metal substrate cats and we have pushed them pretty hard before. (redline time attack street cars, etc)

Thanks Bryan, I just noticed he was running the Ultimate Racing metal cat. I thought that was stock cat at first so got more worried. Have you seen any stock cat failures?

 

bryan,

is it my HFC?

bryan,

do you have time this week (9/19 sat) or next week (9/26 sat) to tune my car after the cat problem is fixed. i am curious to know what my car can make with the cat fixed.

pls let me know

thanks

kirk

 

instead of not reaching the boost, i overreached the boost that i set up, i BOOM POWED into 30psi...but with the HKS WG, it sort of fixed the problem

 

Awesome, can't wait to see the NEW results! Do away with the catalytic BS. Haha

 

wow that is the first time i have ever seen that happen to a hfc.

either defect or cheap quality.

 

how could it be the cat is my question... Aftermarket cats are way more free flowing then stock ones and the ultimate racing metal substrate is claimed to withstand 750hp or so

 

Glad to see you figured it out.
Myself, I still havent figured out why I cant boost.
