- Fri Jan 11, 2013 9:56 pm #323876 finally got my high flow cat, seems like its awesome quality for the price, clean welds and feels nice and sturdy, one question though, my dp/cat have 3 extra bungs for o2 shit, can i just loctite those shut or what, because i dont want exhaust leaks and i dont want the little nut things to fall out when im driving...any suggestions? i have the high temp loctite so it wouldnt be an issue if i could just want to make sure it will hold up to those temps.

ps the loctite says for high temp heat cycling applications but it doesnt say what temp its good till :?

the odd box it came in

i got bored while the wife was at the hospital so i cleaned up my exhaust and mated the dp to the "cat", even got the little bung caps sealed with loctite :thumb:

Image

i will try to get some good pics of the motor tomorrow with the updates and hopefully a pic if i can finish the wiring harness as well, still trying to figure out the bitch pin situation...ive tried everthing i can think of and i still cant get it out..but i shall prevail eventually, look for more updates to come as the next month or so rolls by
