Even a small leak can cause problems down the line, so it's better to be safe than sorry. By following these simple tips, you can ensure that your cat back installation goes smoothly and without any issues. When it comes to cat back installation tips, there are a few things you need to keep in mind.

Less restrictive catalytic converters paired with a cat-back exhaust system will offer high performance and power. Though, the level of horsepower gained is not constant across all cat-back systems. It depends on the quality and performance of the catalytic converters. Because of the better flow of exhausts resulting from the mandrel-bent tubing and the larger diameter piping, cat-back exhaust systems manage to offer better performance. IE offers catback, downpipe, and midpipes upgrades to replace individual sections of your exhaust. Installing variations of these parts allows you to dial in your exhaust volume to your preference, from sporty to aggressive.

An upstream air injection point, ahead of the catalytic converter, is also sometimes present to provide additional oxygen only during the engine warm up period. This causes unburned fuel to ignite in the exhaust tract, thereby preventing it reaching the catalytic converter at all. This technique reduces the engine runtime needed for the catalytic converter to reach its "light-off" or operating temperature. Many vehicles have a close-coupled catalytic converter located near the engine's exhaust manifold. The converter heats up quickly, due to its exposure to the very hot exhaust gases, enabling it to reduce undesirable emissions during the engine warm-up period.

Namely, it replaces the rear axle-back and tips and then a portion of what we refer to as the mid-pipes. This system is emissions friendly and doesn’t require any tuning. In New Jersey, vehicles must pass emissions testing to ensure they meet environmental standards. Since cat-back exhaust systems do not modify the catalytic converter or engine management system, they generally do not affect a vehicle’s ability to pass emissions testing.

This modification includes the pipes, muffler, and sometimes the resonator. The term "cat-back" itself signifies that everything behind the vehicle’s catalytic converter is being upgraded or replaced. Milltek's Sport Catback Exhaust Systems are designed to compensate for the sound reducing qualities from the particulate filter and significantly improve the sound aesthetic of the exhaust system.
