XLR8 High Flow Cat!!
We made some updates over the weekend to the website and it included a high flow cat for the 2nd gen CL/TL. We have these in stock and ready to ship.

The XLR8 high flow catalytic converter is a bolt on unit that replaces your restrictive OE unit with a high flow unit made for Excelerate by Random Technology, well know for their high flow and quality cats. It consists of a stainless steel body with 2.5" inlet/outlet, 300 cell metallic substrate, and floating flanges for ease of installation.
XLR8 Performance Exhaust products are designed for function, form and style. Each exhaust part starts with high grade stainless steel. All exhaust tubing is mandrel bent on sophisticated CNC machinery for a precise fit and uninterrupted exhaust flow. Each XLR8 high flow cat consists of a stainless steel body, 300 cell metallic substrate, and floating flanges for ease of installation. The XLR8 high flow cats are manufactured for us to our specifications by Random Technology.
Since 1993, SuperStainless catalytic converters from Random Technology have been setting the standard for high flow, high efficiency catalytic converters. Over the years, improvements in chemistry and metallurgy have enabled Random Tech to continually upgrade catalytic converter performance and durability. As a result, SuperStainess converters with either metal matrix or ceramic cores continue to be the best catalytic converters available.

Nice...! Please can someone explain the benefits to this upgraded catalytic converter?
Is this more advantageous to people who supercharged or turbo'd or does everybody benefit from this upgrade?
Just trying to educate myself.

More air out = More power, right?

Im guessing u need headers to get the most out of this mod...
To bad someone does not have DC headers i can order yet...
But im waiting...

A little bit of torque is lost (2 ord 3), but the HP goes up. I am pretty sure someone dynoed this a while ago.
I had one on my CL back in the day and I could tell there was a difference. If you have full free flowing exhaust, it is probably a good idea to get your car tuned.

Yes.
Not much, if at all.
$310 but we're doing a GB on the TL side:

The RT cat has a 2" IN/OUT so it's designed more for stock header and exhaust.

Not able to pass visual inspection- Expensive and a waste of time.
Plus, the Cat is like good for the environment and stuff.

I just wanted to confirm that this is exactly the length of the stock cat right? Also what are the benefits of the floating flanges, fitment? I signed up for the group buy, 4 more needed.

Very good question on the length. The flanges look about the same as the stock flanges.

2 more people need to send payment for the GB to be in effect:

The gains of the test pipe were 1 hp over the high flow cat.
