catalytic eliminate

[el_fiebru69]

hi, i'm from Puerto Rico. and there is one of many trips for more HP. if you have more HP and WHP and RPM, eliminate the catalytic and invert the vaccum hoses in the throtle body. =8HP in total www.puertoricodragracing.com :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

[CliptheApex]

can someone elaborate on the vacum thing?

??????
That's not helping me either. :?:

[el_fiebru69]

eliminate the catalytic and you see the result. the engine is 2HP more strong. and use 93-97 octane fuel. more octane, more RPM. And adjust the TPS Sensor for more WHP. Si alguien entiende español, que me escriba, please... :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

93-97 octane???? Damn LA doesn't even go pass 91.......

[el_fiebru69]

i living in Puerto Rico, and the best octane is 97, or use VP gas, or 108 octane in 1/2 tank. remember, eliminate the catalytic for more HP and WHP. and disconect the negative in your battery aprox. 15 min. to reset the ECU. and the engine respond very hard. :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

My pre cat is already gone...........

[99BabyBenz-aka Herb]

Correct me if im wrong, but aint it illegal not to have a catalaytic convertor? or is that just in Jer-z

That's a Federal Law. Don't know if it applies to US possessions like PR or not. Of course there are exemptions, like if your car is over a certain age, etc. But for all practical purposes, running w/o a cat is not cool.

Yo si lo hablo muy bien https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif :wink:

[el_fiebru69]

in Puerto Rico is not ilegal https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif , my galant have 5HP whitout catalityc, and 97 octane.

[NRG]

Actually, I saw a TV interview with a racing performance team and they said higher octane doesn't always improve performance. They said it depends on the engine. If the manual says use regular, then regular is optimal for your car and running supreme won't not improve anything. We are talking about only N/A cars, not FI cars. If you look at the manual for the 4 bangers it says regular but for the 6 bangers, it says premium.

[el_fiebru69]

i put in my tank 97 octane and 108 octane. and i see the diference. try!!! :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

[manybrews]

higher octane gas does nothing for performance.
if the engine isnt pinging or detonating, its a total waste of money. the only reason to use it is if the engine is designed for it (i.e high compression ratios, turbos, etc).
in fact, it WILL cause drivablity issues if your using a gas with a higher octane rating than the engine is designed for.

[Censee]

hey NRG u notice any gains in performance by taking off ure cat????? theres no emmission tests here in florida so its straight.

I only took off the pre-cat, not the main cat.

nitrous=extremely cold, 97 octane=very cold, 93 octane=cold!!! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif any questions?? :twisted: :flaming: :firedevil: :peace:

actually, that has nothing at all to do with anything.

nitrous = 33 percent oxygen to increase the catalyst during combustion, 97 octane = more resistance to burning hence the need for use in a high combustion pressure atmosphere, 93 octane = less resistance to burning so it can be used in combustion chambers that are less stressed.(overly simplified, but still accurate).

[el_fiebru69]

oye sabiondo, mientras mas octanos, mas combustion, asi que 93 y 97 son exelentes para mas rendimiento y poder en RPM//you need a translate??jeje :twisted: :firedevil: :peace: :hhg: :flaming: :ironchief2:

Hey Fiebru hear the man, He is correct.
Unless you are running a turbo or high compresion you don't need more octane the factory recomend.

[el_fiebru69]

mi carro tiene espares doble chispas y cables 8.5mm, tengo mas corriente y nas octanos para la combustion, por ende las RPW son mas rapidas y fuertes. y de carreras yo si se!!! :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

[HondaKillerGTZ]

fiebru de que parte eres??

[el_fiebru69]

soy David y soy natural de Mayagüez, pero vivo en Bayamon. y tu de donde eres??. al fin alguen que habla español!!!!!! el ingles lo entiendo pero a veces se me hace dificil. mi Galant es 8G i4 2.4 LS.

[HondaKillerGTZ]

soy de Carolina

[manybrews]

english would be nice. :roll:

[Tiptronic]

im trying to figure out what the deal is here. why would anyone want to run w/o a cat. i have heard cars w/o them, and they sound horrible. and these guys even had exhausts on their cars

[HondaKillerGTZ]

sorry about the spanish https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif

[el_fiebru69]

sound horrible but my car have more hp and whp!!!!. and on my island aren't ilegal!!!! :twisted: :firedevil: :peace:

[99GalantOn18s]

how bout if you just get a highflow catalytic converter?? like the magnaflow or the skunk2?? i read a past issue of import tuner, and they tested a yellow lancer with a couple bolt ons... and the results were realy good... they had an exhaust, intake and cat... the cat was by some company i really cant remember the name but it added like a good 3 hp and was like 5 feet of torque...

[GNICETRY]

Well, on my friend's GN https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif when he hollowed the cat it was VERY noticeable. Probably 10-20 HP is the norm for those cars.
On the Galant I really wouldn't mess with them. Really wounldn't be a big differance. Except maybe on the Cali spec model which has a lot of cats. Also I think that you can't remove the cat w/in 5 years (Federal law or something). I guess there are no FEDs in PR. And paying $200-300 for hiflow cat (s) and getting 3 hp is not really a good bang for the buck.
