Video Description:This is an Andy's Auto Sport TV episode where we break down the basics of catalytic converters. We explain the difference between a direct-fit bolt-on catalytic converter and a universal weld-on catalytic converter. We also go over the benefits of getting a new cat, and we even do an installation to show what's involved.
Fits On:
92-95 Honda Civic - 2dr & 4dr EX

Thermal Research Hi-Flow Catalytic Converters
Thermal Research Hi-Flow Catalytic Converters
Thermal Research & Development has been working closely with import racing professionals to configure optimum exhaust products for both the street and the racetrack. Thermal Research & Development hand crafts their exhaust systems with maximum horsepower as their top priority over all else.
Thermal exhaust systems are made of stainless steel and are mandrel bent for high flow through bend areas.
Thermal Research & Development is always quick to remind people of this: A vehicle's exhaust system is one of the most important factors in engine performance. The pipe size and flow rate have a direct effect on horsepower potential. With a non-sufficient exhaust flow, your engine's full potential will not be realized. The exhaust system finalizes and determines the full potential of a modified engine. A high-performance exhaust system will allow additional engine modifications to come alive.

Q: What is a hi-flow catalytic converter? Why buy one?
A: All stock catalytic converters are restrictive when it comes to exhaust flow, and they essentially place a choke hold on performance. The hi-flow catalytic converters on the market today have a higher flow capacity than factory units. Still able to pass emissions and gain horsepower, how can you go wrong with a hi-flow catalytic converter?
Q: How do you install a hi-flow catalytic converter?
A: There are two kinds of catalytic converters. The first are direct fit converters (no welding required) which have all necessary flanges and oxygen sensors just like the original equipment catalytic converters. There are also universal fit catalytic converters that are designed to be welded or clamped in place. Universal fit converters have the same flow characteristics as direct fit models with the same inlet and outlet diameter.
