Does getting a 3.5" dump and high flow cat cause a "limp home" mode or overboost? I need to seriously start thinking about what system to get.

Does getting a 3.5" dump and high flow cat cause a "limp home" mode or overboost? I need to seriously start thinking about what system to get.I've had the full 3.5" XForce system, and bigger I/C, on my MkII with no overboost issues. Never had a problem.And don't bother with the standard dump. At a minimum get 3.5" split dump and cat. I'd recommend a full system though.

If you were on a budget I would fit a large MetalCat and replace the front mufflers with straight through pipes.You will need to retune your car either way to prevent over boosting.I dont think the short dump pipe from your turbo would be squashed but probably the pipe in the front bit of your cat section would be. If you wanted to replace that section people often have them up for sale on the forum cheap Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/36416-stock-or-not/#findComment-556642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
