Most cars won't throw a CEL with HFCs. If yours does, add these after the fact in all of 10 or 20 minutes.
straight o2 spacer
or
90 degree o2 spacer, if you need it for clearance issues.

You've been here long enough to know there's a track sub-forum:
Motorsports / Track - MyG37
If you mean street racing, which is illegal, no, there's not. Just like we don't have a sub-forum for your favorite call-girls, LOL.

"Unlike the new offerings from Saleen and Hennessey, the basic Roush RS, RS Stage 1, and RS Stage 2 are primarily cosmetic kits for Mustang V-6, EcoBoost, and GT models."

That said, it would be fun to talk about head-2-head events on the street. Well, to *read* about them, at least. Those moments come so rare to me nowadays.

Lol yeah the Roush RS is just a dressed up v6 mustang. The one i ran against had the optional performance exhaust which made that mustang sound pretty rowdy. Very V8-like.
It was the 2013-2014 Roush RS Mustang with the 3.7L V6
It was a fun run. I always wanted to run against a v6 mustang, camaro, charger & challenger. Now i can knock the mustang off the list.
I owned this car since april 2015 and that was my first time running against another car so it was pretty exciting

After selling my old Maxima to a friend, we had a moment once where we were accidentally lined up side-by-side at a light. Certainly, my G took the old Nissan, but in reality it was simply embarrassing for the both of us. Spinning tires, wheel hop, bouncing off the rev limiter, miss-shifts, and just about everything wrong you could imagine.
I don't think that counts as a street racing story... more like a lesson in humility.
On the street, I think we're all better drivers *without* the adrenaline.

If you plan to do that in the future please don't discuss it here.

Sooo it's almost March, and that means it's almost time for me to purchase my high flow cats. I've narrowed my choices down to the Z1 HFC and Fast Intentions(either res or non res)
They both have their pros/cons, the Z1 HFC have the extra mounting bracket for added support and the FI have the extended O2 bungs. Decisions, decisions.

I'm not sure about the Z1 HFC's, but the Berks come with extended O2 bungs (straight extended, not the 90° type) and mounting brackets. I had the Berks on my car for a couple of years and never threw a CEL... Of course every car is a little different... Just keep in mind you can also always add extensions if necessary.
I'm really starting to like the black roof on the white sedans.Incidentally, your headlight treatment looks great. Got any close-up pics of them?

IIRC, or unless it's changed since I last researched it, Berks uses the same coil design for catalyst in their cats, but it's a 200 cell count, vs. the 300 ct that's in the FI cats. In other words, the Berks are less restrictive and subsequently more loud and raspy.
How much less restrictive? Does it matter? Probably not.
How much more noisy or raspy? I think that's something that matters.

Both FI and Z1 have 300 cell counts. I'm like the worst person to give advice to. LOL

For months, we've had the most lame winter ever, and then BAM!

My driver side FI RHFC crapped out on me and it hasn't even made it through 1 year. I believe the honeycomb is going bad or is bad cause it makes a rattling/rasp noise. You can really hear it when you're next to a wall like a drive thru.
I think I m going to pick up some Z1 HFC even though they aren't resonated.
When the FI RHFC were good they sounded great with my ARK but now I cant stand how they sound and its kind of embarrassing cause when I go on base I have to show my ID and it just sounds terrible...
