whipple or no whipple every part has the same probability to break down...

My MAF sensors broke down (no oiled filters)
My engine was defective and had to be replaced
My cylinder head temperature sensor was faulty and caused fake overheating (probably got damaged when new engine got installed)
Anticipating the next one now....

The axle is an easy fix. What is the fix for the converters? I don’t want to put on headers live in California. I don’t think there’s an easy fix for the converters. The axle is an easy fix.

Has anybody actually went to the trouble of welding in high flow cats to make them look factory? How hard would it be to pass them off as factory? I don’t have a smog this thing until 2029.

Custom job of putting in GT500 cats

There aren’t a set of cats that will last. Even the purpose built high flow cats that kooks sells need to be clamped in so they can be replaced as needed. That’s about your only option.

Yes, but they dont last. You will be on a second set within a year depending on how hard you drive.

Oh I didn't know that, that sucks. I guess I'll have that issue to deal with when I get my supercharger.

Nothing may break if you drive it within it's limitations. If you beat the hell out of it, do back to back pulls w/o time for the CAT's to cool, and don't drive it like you stole it, the car can be reliable, even the CAT's.
