Hey guys

Is the cat pipe (from header to crossover) the same on ecotecs and supercharged 6's?

I have conflicting stories, and as i am needing to get one, i'd like to know what i'm asking for.

Regards

Well a factory L67 has twin cats and twin main mufflers and then joins into 1 pipe just before the rear axle and one more rear muffler next to the fuel tank. I think it is similar to the v8?

A stock ecotec joins into the cat with 2 pipes in, and 1 outlet, and just runs a single cat, pipe and muffler and then 1 more rear muffler next to the fuel tank.

So yes the cats are different

I suggest you poke your head under the car and see which set up you have.

Too easy....cheers for that.

Im assuming the v8 cat pipes wont fit then, given the different headers!

Not true, I have hurricane extractors on my super6 running into a twin 2 1/2v8 exhaust, they did a bit of messing around at the exhaust shop but all good, talk to NOT_AN_ABBA_FAN he knows his **** and will set you up :)
