Today I recieved the Random Technology Cat. Converter from Excelerate, great guy to deal with and best of all, no customs nor duty fees!




I also bought the O2 extension and the hardware kit.

Im just wondering how my exhaust will sound like when I get this thing installed. I removed my only mid muffler.

Im gonna get this installed when I go to my mechanic to get my winter tires swapped in.

I'll post back with a sound clip when that happens.

I hope yours doesn't get raspy, I heard a clip on a CL and.........well, I hope yours sounds better.

im not expecting any gains from this, I bought this because my cat is rattling, sounding like a tank whenever i accelerate. Between the RT cat and OEM cat, the RT cat is a more economical choice whereas the OEM cat can cost an arm and a leg.

Im gonna get it installed sometime this week. I will keep this thread updated.

The difference in sound on a S is minimal, though on a P there is much less catalyst, so maybe a bit more of a differnce. Unfortunately, mine got raspy after I removed the mid muffler.

You have a TL-P or TL-S?

bibledriver

Mine is a TL-S, Comptech headers, RT Cat, then subsequent midmuffler removal (not to include the ever famous "juice can" resonator which is still there) which unfortunately created a noticeable rasp between 2300-2900 rpm under any load and more if at good load/throttle during higher rpms (but less noticeable to me due to growling intake).

Correction in red - sorry

derrick

To whomever posted they don't see modified 2nd gen TL's in the GTA ... I don't know where you drive / live. I see quite a few of them (not every day, but often) on my commutes from North York <-> 'ssauga. And if I go to Pacific Mall or any area with a high density of Asians (Indian, Oriental, etc) ... it's almost a certainty.

i live in north york and i'm always driving to sauga cuz my family lives there.. i'm around pacific mall alot too cuz my older sister lives in richmond hill.. still nothing lol.
i saw exactly 2 2nd gens that you can consider modded and a bunch of a-specs though.
oh yeah, i've seen OntarioTL's also but thats because i drove all the way to london to get my guages done
