Not looking too bad at all. Should try and find yourself the rest of the Pursuit kit for the tray to match the cab and in my opinion will finish it off very nice.

Without the cat, it will really burble. It'll sound awesome for an I6, that's for sure.

So car has no cat converter?

It does at the moment, but he's taking it to a bloke that can give him the option to bolt on a pipe to the flanges where the cat would be, so he has the choice to put the cat on when he chooses.

Awesome ute mate, you've done nice tasteful mods, nothing over the top, nice work! And I think you've actually made an AU1 look good! ;)

If no cat oncverter, then he is a idiot.

You wont gain KW, you wont gain street cred. Just be polluting the air more.

People here on the forums get their numbers with cat converters, some only have 100cpsi, but still better then nothing.


i dont appreciate being called an idiot alright mate! instead why not tell me why its better to have a cat instead of straight pipe.
