SQC049 Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I agree with you to a point, but I wouldn't call the difference in quality between Megan and Zero Sport "marginal" as you say.

lgt-z Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I don't intend to hijack the thread but after searching other UP/DP threads in addition to this one, I have one question I was looking for a yes/no answer on: There is a cat in the UP which could fail (and destroy the turbo), so the replacement of the UP (with any reputable aftermarket catless UP), is generally recommended?

SQC049 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 go ahead and buy a $1500 header and let us know how it goes Well, the OP said if money were no object, that's why I said Zero Sports. I wouldn't buy their header, but I wouldn't buy Megan either. It'd get something reputable, but not crazy expensive. I have used Zero Sports products in the past, I even have a few on order now for my car. The quality and fitment are second to none.

BoxerGT2.5 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Up-Pick one (doesn't really matter)DP-Decide if your going catless, HFC, or keeping the 3rd cat. Then pick one. Headers-Decide if you want equal or unequal-then pick one. OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedNeeder Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I am not aware of any LGT UP cats breaking. I have read about a couple of WRX UP's doing that. I think if you are going to leave a cat in, the UP cat is an option for the stock turbo. If I did it I would log my EGT's after every mod and make sure things are not getting hotter. That would give me piece of mind. My other car is a 1993 Chevy S-10 Tahoe! (Currently being driven to failure by my nephew) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTGT Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I wonder how many people are running the stock uppipe still. I know there are a few, maybe more out there. Is it my imagination or have i only heard of one case with a lgt where the cat in the up crumbled, destroying the turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
