ecksjay Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 that one was far too expensive.if any pops up i'll advertise them here......what would be the interest of being uksc's resident auctions bidder for people as a matter of curiosity???
GT_Neil Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 blitz systems?no, the blitz decat was only ever sold separately.show me what you're on about, almost all exhaust systems from the land of jdm are cat back.http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/ProductItem-114.aspxthat was the system i was looking at. in the picture it has a cat? so .... err...?
Sparky Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 its a 2 piece system but shows three pieces.......... why????
Mark Edwards Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 On this subject, does anyone make one for the uk cars?
ecksjay Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 ...where does it show a cat? do you know what a cat looks like? thats just a middle-box, silencer type thing, used in japland to control emissions/noise etc (hence why jap exhausts although cool for the brand, arent actually the best exhausts to get, well, not if you're swapping turbo's anyway).on the stock ct9 they're fine as they provide some back pressure, which the ct9 needs greatly as the wastegate is shit, but if you were to go for something bigger or a hybrid etc, nothing jdm wise will beat a custom exhaust, just because they become restrictive to meet various jap regulations etc.

paul w Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 With no fueling mods you wont run more boost for long! Get the basics in place before going for the other power mods.Fuel pump,rrfpr before you think about turning up the boost.

paul w Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Too many people turn up the boost and then wonder why the engine goes pop,very common mistake! You could get a supra/celica pump but theyre gonna be a fair age most of them,get a new walbro pump for the gt theyre only about £100 and you know it's not gonna give up on you 6 months down the line! Piece of piss to fit too!
shelly_star Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Yo guys i've been offered a Blitz decat for £140 delivered at my door..... worth it?
shelly_star Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 2nd hand, dunno how long it's been used for and waiting for some photos if he has any...
