Magnaflow Cat Converter - 4/10/2008 7:58:06 PM    Anthony   Posts: 112 Joined: 2/1/2007 Status: offline I'm really not sure if buying this magnaflow direct fit cat from summit racing will benefit any. I have a magnaflow muffler 2.25" with 2.25" piping no resonater at the moment. Will it help out any to buy a aftermarket cat, im planning on buying a header also later on down the road. Thanks. _____________________________ 95 Honda civic, SOHC, 1.5 L Post #: 1

If it's a high flow cat then it will definitely help with hp a little. _____________________________ Vote for Barack Obama if you care about our country! (in reply to Anthony) Post #: 2

My question now is about obd2 and 1. I have a 95 honda civic, would it be obd2? If not can I use obd2 on a obd1 car. Thanks. _____________________________ 95 Honda civic, SOHC, 1.5 L (in reply to 1slowcivic) Post #: 4

OBDI cats don't have a bong for the O2 sensor and the OBDII cats come with the bong, What are going to do about the hole, Just get a universal Magnaflow High Flow cat for your car it's that simple or get a direct fit _____________________________ Civic Si 2000 AEM short ram intake AEM High flow fuel filter & Adujustable Cams Magnaflow Exhaust and Magnaflow Cat Eibach springs HID Kit 8k Bulbs Skunk2 shift knob DC Sports headers ceramic 4-1 (in reply to Anthony) Post #: 5

I was reading somewhere before I bought it though and those ones are high-flow. It came out to like 90 bucks after shipping. You have OBD1. < Message edited by trustdestruction -- 4/11/2008 8:40:38 AM > _____________________________ Vote for Barack Obama if you care about our country! (in reply to Civic Si 00) Post #: 6

RE: Magnaflow Cat Converter - 4/11/2008 9:58:10 PM    Anthony   Posts: 112 Joined: 2/1/2007 Status: offline Okay, well I look for the obd1 cats, didnt know which one my car was. The site I looked at had all obd2, the price was good. Was gonna just get a direct fit one, but i dont have stock pipes any more, was looking at how they connect...Theres a flange from the cat to the pipes, Im not sure at the moment how they even connected the 2.25 pipe to the cat, would they have had some coverter flange? If Im gonna have to have it welded on anyways, dont wanna pay more for the direct fits. _____________________________ 95 Honda civic, SOHC, 1.5 L (in reply to inthezoneac) Post #: 9

I looked all the way towards the bottom of the page and it says it will fit your car. Remember this cat is OEM specs and not a HIGH FLOW CAT http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MAGNAFLOW-CATALYTIC-CONVERTER-80-95-HONDA-CIVIC-53004_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247QQcategoryZ33629QQihZ014QQitemZ330224908496QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V < Message edited by Civic Si 00 -- 4/12/2008 12:45:20 AM > _____________________________ Civic Si 2000 AEM short ram intake AEM High flow fuel filter & Adujustable Cams Magnaflow Exhaust and Magnaflow Cat Eibach springs HID Kit 8k Bulbs Skunk2 shift knob DC Sports headers ceramic 4-1 (in reply to Anthony) Post #: 10
