Ive saw another company at auto salon last year who could do that as well. I dont know how well it would work on a non-turbo car though. Id be too scared that the rear bumper melts.

Man that thing is sooo illegal... I don't think it's worth it, there are many problems with this...

That picture was taken at the BBQ and cruise last year.
He is registered on the forum. Do a search on the forums, because there was another thread on this, and he did post some details.
From memory, he and his mate did it themselves, and were going to do it for others.
As for legality..

though the need to remove your cat in your exhaust would also add to the illegality of such a mod

whilst this stuff is "cool" ... it has serious implications..
1. the systems are not allowed ot be installed on road registered cars.
2. the CAT has to come off your car... this is a defect, not to mention very bad for the environment.....
if you still want to do it go ahead but please consider the implications to your hip pocket and poor mother nature before going ahead...

The photos i have seen of the kits all look very messy, if u know what i mean. The photo of the fto with it looks nice, clean blue flame... whats the difference, mechanically speaking?
