Tegger's 'Teg needs a cat - UPDATE
loewent > wrote in
: > Theres a big Walker 'W' on my OEM muffler for my 98 civic..... And my OEM Honda oil filter is made by FRAM. Doesn't mean much. What a supplier produces on its own and what they make under Honda's close direction are wholly different. The aftermarket Walker is actually physically repulsive in appearance, in addition to to being too fat for the allotted space within the "transmission tunnel" of my Integra. After some extensive searching, it appears pretty much everybody is using the same size 3-way element (maybe even all from the same maker), and just packaging it in their own sheet metal. Unfortunately, the '90-'93 Integra uses a long, slim cat, one that has dimensions quite different from the aftermarket cats available. This means my new cat will either hang quite low, or removal/alteration of the body heat shield will be required. This now explains why the Walker unit I studied has angled pipes and connectors. Evidently Walker is intending the unit hang too low rather than require tampering with the OEM body heat shield. Updates to follow next month... -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
