fastfwd Member 103 Member For: 12y 5m Posted 13/12/11 07:30 AM Share Posted 13/12/11 07:30 AM So recently blew the turbo on my Terri Turbo which Ive replaced with a new turbo but unfortunately my luck some how the cat is stuffed also which is throwing my car into limp mode.I have a Magnaflow twin 2.5 or 2.75 inch Cat back exhaust which came on the car. I just bought this dump the other day because I knew I was going to take the cat off anyways ---> http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/290602047198?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649now I need to find a Cat to suit the setup. Anyone know of any high flow cats that dont cost a mortage?OEM Ford cat = $1750Magnaflow from a Exhaust shop = $600I highly doubt the magnaflow costs 600, they just like to make a fresh markup on it.So yeah if anyone knows any good highflow cats that dont cost an arm and a leg pls let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastfwd Member 103 Member For: 12y 5m Posted 13/12/11 08:48 AM Author Share Posted 13/12/11 08:48 AM firstly how the hell did you blow the turboCar has done over 100,000 clicks and the Gauze oil feed filter got blocked (as they do at around those km's) and starved the turbo for oil and blew.Warning if you havent removed your gauze filter and replaced it with a inline. Do it asap because I made the mistake of not knowing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There a number of ways to rectify this, from getting a HEGO spacer that pulls the rear HEGO slightly out of the exhaust stream, down to turning off the rear HEGO entirely, using a modified tune. Also, using that larger dump pipe may also lead you to having boost control issues, with the standard flapper and port unable to regulate boost accurately, without porting modifications.
