Eastern catalytic converters

[Daxzz]

Anybody know anything about these? They are a single cat set-up (per side), as opposed to the stock dual cat set-up, with the flex joint and they supposedly flow better than stock. I can get a pair pretty cheap but I don't know whether or not they'd be an improvement or if I should go with one of the other high flow options. Any input is appreciated. And before someone says it, yes, I already tried multiple search variants without any results.

Eastern cats are simular to Roe cats yes it will flow better. http://www.roeracing.com/ProductCart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=435&idcategory=215

Thanks for the input, Wiretech. The Roe's and the Random Tech's were the other options I was considering. Still wondering how the Eastern's compare, in terms of flow rate, to the other options available.

Stocks cats has 400 cells per sq inch as eastern cats has 200 cells per sq inch same as roe's cats. I just order a set of eastern last week, I still have to install them Ill let you know how it goes.

Hey guys,
I actually need a set of stock cats to register my car in California (it came without cats). I can't use eastern as they aren't legal here. Does anyone have a set of OEM cats they'd be willing to part with for a price? Please help, already got a ticket for not registering.

I have a pair of stock 06's. The driver's side needs help but the passenger side is perfect. Let me know if you're interested in them.

The standards for a '97 Viper are different than a '06 Viper, as in less stringent.
Factory cats work, high flows not so much........

Unknown what year funky has.......if he has a older one he may be able to use hi flow...

Just a warning, that earlier Vipers could pass emissions with just a single cat when new, but as the miles accumulated they began to flunk the tests.

You may be able to pass the sniffer but you won't be able to pass the "visual" with a supercharger unless ......

Aftermarket engine parts have to be approved to pass smog in CA and other states. They will have a number on them that can be checked in the certified parts records by the smog tech. For instance, my buddy's Mustang has a Vortech supercharger that is approved for his model year, gets flagged on the visual part of the smog test, then checks out OK due to the certified EO number.

Paxton does not have approval or and "EO" number in CA.
