My car is running like CRAP!
My car is running like CRAP!
I'm thinking that my cat is clogged up because my RS is not running like it used to.
What are the symptoms of a clogged up cat? Would this cause my car to idle rough? And it doesn't seem to pull near as good as it used to. What else could be causing this???
I really need to start spending some $$$ on my car because I keep bitching about not having enough power. I have decided to just do something about it.
By the way, I have a 92 305 tbi 120 k w/open element and no muffler so I know it should be faster than ever now.

If you have the bucks get a complete SLP exhaust system, headers, and cat back system, and for the love of god put a muffler on it, anything without a muffler sounds like crap, you might think it sounds good because it's loud, but it don't!!!

Maybe its ignition problems. I had a rouh Idle and a tune up fixed that.
