not just 1-4k...

throughout the entire powerband.
the power delivery doesnt stop at 4k...

geez...some people shouldnt mod.

 

slow down friend.

So far that what I notice . I haven't have time to get on the highway and go more then 4k rpm. I know I have more then that because of my setup 3.7 intake manifold and tb 4 "intake atlp jpipe test pipe and cat back.

 

okay, i forgive you.
but dont give half reviews.

because all your mods make power throughout the entire power band...not just 1-4k rpm

 

I drive the car every day from home to the naval base and all is city drive. That why notice power in that rpm range. It take less effort to build up speed I don't have to push the gas pedal too far before am doing 45-50 at 3k rpm.

 

I have the hfpc and i use to have the pcd. big difference for everyday driving. massive tq if you get on it

dont think to hard ppl and spend the xtra 200 bucks on the hfpc.

 

O men you was right I got on the highway today. This car is so fast now. And when vtec turn on it pull so hard. I am glad I did this set up.

 

^ i love vtec! lol

 

I WAN to do a dyno this weekend.

 

Beside the big power gain I do notice a big improvement in gas mileage

 

interested to see your dyno results with all your mods!

 

Is anyone selling their pcd or j pipe?

 

Black market.

It is not illegal if you have no inspection like in my state. You can run whatever you want , test pipe, straight pipe, delete all cats, whatever, you can have smoke pourin out of your TL with a foul smell, it doesn't matter. There is no inspection, so you are wrong.
Now, if you care a little about the environment you may run high flow cats to help a little.
I am going to run a j-pipe with high flow cats(although I have a type S M/T, I hope their is some substantial gain) and get a tune with hondata flashpro to have the mods working at at an optimum level.
To say you can't run no cats is ridiculous, you in California have the strictest emissions laws in the U.S. If you are on the East coast , run that test pipe!

 

You're wrong. It doesn't matter if your state/county has testing or not - it's still a felony to tamper with any of your emissions systems.

 

Well bro, I ran a high flow cat and a header on my Civic Si for years as the cat converter sat in my shed....
Nobody looked under the car for 7 years except my friend that is a mechanic and the honda dealer. Nobody cared.
I don't think anybody cares , except in states that they have inspection is all I am saying. And, High flow cats still protect the environment a little bit

 

Yeah I'm not implying that you're likely to get into trouble doing so. Just saying that it's illegal regardless of whether your state/county has inspections or not. It's only a matter of time before inspections are federally mandated in all states.

 

Anyway , let's keep on the topic, I am interested if there will be gains going from type -s cats to high flow cats from a vendor like RV6....or will the gains be neglegible?

 

Not a felony. I'm not a Felon and have been convicted of it.

 

There will be some gains, they will just be negligible. To quantify it a bit for you, base cats have 900 cells, type-s has 600 cells, HFPC are either 300 or 200 cells, and PCDs are 0 cells aka straight pipes. Less cells = more flow = freeing up more power.

 

claybar helps.... a lot

 

you will notice gains (not negligible) going from type s to hfpcs...with or without hondata. your exhaust note will get louder as well just as a heads up if you have an aftermarket catback

 

It's a violation, not a felony, although they reserve the right to slap a hefty fine on you.

LOL, wut?

 

technically PCD's are 1 cell..............but thats just me being a dick

 

detailing product

 

Is the hefty fine the only punishment for tempering with the cats?

Lol, two years later and just seeing this. I clay my car every spring; just don't know what a clay bar has to do with high flow cats.

 

RV6 is 200

 

^^

Richie uses the Magnaflow 59956 and there's a lot of conflicting info as to whether they're 200 or 300 cell. Magnaflow doesn't specify on their site, but do some digging and you'll see the opposing views. I know Berk was using the 59956 on their Nissan/Infiniti cats for awhile and they were advertising them as 300 cell.
