Dansk Sport Cats
 

Where's the best place to get them or similar 100 or 200 cell cats? I've only found them at Automotion retailing for $1600, which seems like a lot for 2 catalytic converters and some pipe. I imagine a good fabricator could make them for a lot less. Hmmm... anyone know of a reliable muffler shop near Burbank, CA that could do it?

You can just goto any cheap muffler shop and ask them if they can cut, remove your old cats from the exhaust and weld in a set of 200 cell cats that they can order. Probably cost you less than 500 bucks that way.

That is what I thought. At this point I have to find anyone that can build that or a cat by-pass. I wish I would have just purchased them from the person selling them on this forum for 300 bucks. If you see a set for about that let me know.

That's the thing. I don't want to go to any muffler shop. I'd like recommendations where they do good work, but without gouging you with a "Porsche tax." I know of a good place in Costa Mesa from when I lived in the OC, but nothing in the Valley. Anyone have any recommendations?

Well heres the thing with Good muffler shops.... the charge an arm and a leg.

You need to find a hole in a wall mufflershop and be discriptive with what you want them todo. Not too hard to cut a weld in a cat onto an exhaust so anyone with welding experience can do it so no need to be picky with who you let play with your exhuast system.

This is true, however, consider that the factory Porsche packaging is very poor, and the diameter of the piping is rather small. Both obviously do not help exhaust flow. The Dansk (or any other good components) are designed to flow better, and typically utilize larger diameter plumbing.

Just food for thought.

Catalytic converters aren't cheap. Have a look a Summit or Jegs. Those places are the major suppliers for the Ford/Chevy/Dodge drag racing and hot rod set. Individual high-flow cats are about $150, before you start cobbling them into an exhaust system. Stainless tubing isn't cheap either - check prices on 7' tubing. I've been thinking for a while about building my own high flow cats, and it looks like the job would be around 500-600 bucks.

I went into a completely different direction. Instead of getting sport secondary cats, I'm getting new headers with sport primary cats from Imagine Auto along with a Fabspeed secondary cat bypass. The cost for the combo is less than the Dansk sport cats and has the advantage of moving more of the weight towards the middle of the car which will help handling. Plus, the shiny stainless headers/cat, shiny bypass and shiny muffler from Che that I ordered yesterday will look good if I'm ever stuck under the car (j/k). The downside is that I will need to pull the existing header off and I'm hoping I can do it without shearing an exhaust bolt :o

I won't have time to do a proper dyno comparo, but I'll report back on my experience.

Anybody where can I get some chrome pipes. I want to build this myself. All I see on the net are all pre cut.

Forget all this nonsense. Contact Nello at Maxspeed Motorsports. I have promised not to disclose any pictures, but they have the solution and it's not the headers on their website you've seen over an over on these forums.

These are new as as soon as I can get some cash in, I am going to purchase these newly designed headers with integral sport cats. I have seen them and they are stunning to say the least. Not too expensive either. Now you will have a complete solution and zero CEL's.
