Are there any small cats out there?
I am looking to do true duals, but I don't have a dual cat car. I have an 88 IROC.
What I want to do is place two cats side by side where the one is and go the rest of the way. I will be pushing 425+ hp by next summer, when I can finish my engine. I need a good flowing cat that would flow enough for the 4 bank per exhaust tube. Anybody have any ideas?
TIA

Summit p/n CTO-6006. "Universal, 14 in. long, 2-1/2 in. diameter slip fit inlet and outlet, stainless steel, catalytic converter." With A.I.R. tube (if that's an issue - plug it if not).
1/4" larger ID than factory dual cats, should flow plenty for your power.

I am planning on doing two 2" pipes to dump. I guess I will need to see what the inlet/outlet sizes available are. I don't want to get too big.
Is 14" too long for the area that is there? I figured that would need to be shorter.
Ever heard of a dual inlet/outlet on a cat?

I have no clue what the pipe sizes are.
If you are really going to produce 425 HP, 2" is probably a bit small.
14" is shorter than the factory cats.

I think the JCW paper catalog has the pipe sizes for that dual/dual cat, but I don't have one in front of me right now.
