Hey Josh, is this cat any different from the RT cat we can get anywhere else?

nice, but how come 2.25 and not 2.5"?

The RT cat has different size inlet/outlet. We have used a 2.25" inlet/outlet to improve exhaust flow.

I did that because 2.25" is sufficient for most of the TSX owners. We can make a 2.5" but it would only be useful to those with forced induction.

you do know that 2.25 is very small for naturally aspirated engines right? 3.0" is needed for forced induction

2.25" is not that small for a N/A vehicle. The factory pipe is between .25" to .5" smaller than that. It's a 2.4L 4 cyl. A 2.25" pipe is sufficient enough to improve performance. 3" is recommended for forced induction but it isn't needed. I didn't design the pipe for the S/Ced guys although they could run it. We can make custom inlet/outlet diameters upon request.
