^ agreed

 

will the crawford cats pass emissions?

 

off record - its possible but not likely

on record - no, they are for off road use only

 

according to the email I received from Doug he hasn't heard of any CA guys failing emissions due to the HFC's (nor have I seen any postings of the same either here or on my350Z.com), however technically they are for off road only as stated above. If you are concerned about this just keep your OEM cats handy and swap them out before you go in for the test.

 

in my opinion,

if you spend 500 bucks on HFCs and they pass emissions then you just wasted 500 bucks!!!

 

What a waste of money. $500+ for ~5 hp ..... no thanks.

 

Best $500.00 I've ever wasted BTW, do these look like they wont pass a visual Most inspectors wont know if this is OEM or not.

oh yeah.. DUH. haha

for an extra 5hp? eh...

 

who told you they would only give you 5hp? hahahaha

our cats are super restrictive...andymodification to them would do wonders

 

Where are your dyno results (before and after) telling me how much power there is to be gained?

I don't care what you think you gain ... I'm interested in actual numbers.

 

where are your numbers that said they only gain ~5hp

im just wondering where you got your info

i was told i would get 6hp minimum

even if thats true..only 5hp...you have to squeeze out everything you can...

i dont have money to waste on dynos lol not until im all done with my mods at least

 

I remember seeing a post with a dyno in the past but I couldn't find it after quite a bit of searching so I made this:

I'm all set with spending $100+ per horsepower.

 

Slick,

Just got done searching over at 350Z.com

Read the whole post.

I tired to search on here, made a few threads, but it seems like most of the people on this forum are here for aesthetics, sound, etc....

Not really my cup of tea. I asked if the cats MAKE more power, and 75% of the responses I get are "they sound nice"....

YAY. Let me spend $ on sound....

 

So what are you trying to say? You just spent $500 for sound? You're not making much sense...

 

Not at all.

I bought the cats regardless. What I was saying is that I can't for the life of me get ANY empirical data regarding gains in the REAL WORLD. Manufacturers and websites make outlandish claims of 20rwhp, but NOT ONE person comes on the boards validating anything....

I just find that weird...
