High Flow. Are you looking to free up your restrictive stock exhaust, but are required by law to run Catalytic Converters? Then AmericanMuscle has the answer you need in the form of Pypes High Flow Metallic Catalytic Converter Kit.

Easy swap at the track.   Every car enthusiast knows that catalytic converters suck the lifeblood - horsepower - out of your engine. If you're running a Pypes modular x-pipe style configuration for track / racing purposes, these cats give you an easy way to be street legal when you leave the track.

Rugged construction. These Pypes Mini Catalytic Converters are build from polished 409 stainless and feature a durable Metallic substrate material making them perfect for force inducted applications. They weigh in at 2.5 lbs each and only measure 11 inches in length.

Small Footprint. Installed, the Pypes catalytic converters have a very Small under-carriage footprint that only takes up a virtually invisible 7” in length making them perfect for custom applications.

Will pass most emissions tests. Pypes High Flow Metallic Catalytic Converters will pass emissions testing procedures in most states. However, check your local and state ordinances for installation and usage regulations.

Application. The Pypes High Flow Metallic Catalytic Converter Kit is specifically designed for use with power adders such as a Supercharger, Turbo-charger, or Nitrous equipped Mustang from 1986 to 2010. If you have a naturally aspirated Mustang then check out the Pypes High Flow Ceramic Catalytic Converter Kit.

Do I need o2 sensors with these as well or can I just tune them out

  • you can just tune them out. They are there for the states that look for them to pass their emissions.

If I purchase these, do I need o2 sensors?

TADARRIUS

  • The Pypes High Flow Metallic Catalytic Converter Kit will utilize the factory o2 sensors, and new sensors will not be required, if they are working properly.

if i install these on a mustang that isnt naturally asperated will it affect the sound I have a 05 GT and planned on installing the exhaust before major upgrades like a supercharger but I plan on installing one. will this affect the sound negatively

flaminrims

  • The Pypes High Flow Metallic Catalytic Converter Kit (86-10 All) will not negatively affect the sound, since this has cats it will not be as free flowing but the sound difference is very miniscule.

Will these run smoothly with a N/A engine? As of right now, my engine is N/A, but pretty soon down the road i plan on supercharging it. and i'd hate to have to buy a new set of cats when i do. Will these run smoothly with a N/A engine?

long tube headers? Will adding this stop the check engine light that comes on after installing long tube headers?

dgd27

  • You are going to have to Install these too and then get a tune up and that gets rid of the check engine light and tunes your motor to adapt to the amount of air flow that the cat censor is reading and what that means MORE POWER

    I own a 2009 gt500 with 2.5 pulley and monoblade throttle body. I thought these cats would help my Shelby breathe but instead they are choking it to death. I have less power and less gas mileage than the stock units. I will be getting these removed after only 3 days of use. What a waste. Do yourself a favor and buy another product.

    Excellent Price/Quality

    Great fit/finish. I have the pypes LT's w/off road X, had a great sound except for some trumpeting around 2k-3k rpm when I was accelerating hard. The cats took that away and turned it in to the perfect growl. They also got rid of the exhaust smell, which was just an added bonus. Install was easy as cake, only had to make two cuts to the modular pieces between the long tubes and mid pipe so I can always buy another set of modular pieces from Pypes if I want to go without when I take it to the track.

    O.K.

    I had bought the pypes O/R x pipe with my SLP LM1's and it was crazy loud. which was fine by me. But the exhaust smell was bad when i was in a drive thru or something like that. So i decided to buy these and it quieted it down a little bit but my check engine light is still on and i have no increase in power.

    awesome sound and flow

    When I bought these I got the PYPES catted x pipe. The sound and flow is amazing. Fitment was horrible. I had to rig ratchet straps to pull the pipes together to bolt on. Other than that. Its a great product.

    2006 4.6 supercharged GT

    Well made outer layer that is considerably better made than stock catalytic converters. The sound is deeper without being obnoxious. Having the O2 sensor bungs already inplace is nice. So far only about 300 miles on the converters, the O2 sensors are reading out of range.

    GREAT LOOKS WITH OUTSTANGIN PERFORMANCE

    This was an easy install. You can clamp or weld the but strongly recommend you weld them in. The appearance is sleek and clean. For those who have states that require catalac converters this is a great option. Highflow and don't restrict what you're trying to achieve in horsepower gains. Great bang for your buck. Literally!

    Very Happy

    Replaced factory catalytic converters when they started to fall apart within, causing a rattle noise at wide open throttle. Exhaust shop removed resonators (which I didn't ask for) and factory cats when installing these, and I love the exhaust sound of my V6 now. I've had other mechanics (experienced ones at that) say to me "Is this really a V6?". Not only that, fuel economy went from 22.6mpg highway to 27.9mpg. That's significant, very happy with the product. Inspection of the cat install after the fact revealed that the due to the size and shape of the cat, the left converter is slightly too close to the body of the car since the cats do not come with heat shields. No problems there after 6 months of summer driving.
