Melted Catalytic Converter

This is what happens when a cheap cat and extreme heat meet. I was told that the cat was a Dynomax but it looked very cheap. Could be, or couldn't. Either way, this was on special an Jeg's when I bought it, and not even a year later, it is finished. Good thing I got it replaced because the car felt sluggish sometimes and I guess now I know why! Look at how that core is just break dancing inside....

It was not misfiring.

Lesson learned here. Don't buy cheap converters. However, if it was me, I would have just removed the cat altogether.

Yeah but i want to stay legal as much as possible ;)

Problem is when you gut a cat it sounds like uber poop. Resonator on the way.

Fuck the cat Straight pipe!!!

[MrGizmo757]

if they get hot enough you can shove a garden hose up your tail pipe and the guts in your cat will explode into little pieces. then you remove the pipe and dump em out. this works on packed mufflers too. like a thrush or flow master. just don't let the water make it as high as the manifold. if that cracks your fucked. the older guys that remember the 70's muscle car era know about this trick. it was very common back then for gutting mufflers.

cat for 50, the platinum in theres worth 25. take it to a scrap yard and get some money back.

[mmaaxx1198]

I doubt the cheap cat has any metals in it but it might be worth while to get the platinum and palladium out of it if it does.

Just take the convertor out. It slows down the exhaust anyways.
