    Evoflow is a better alternative at a better price point.

    I spoke with Troy on a number of occasions and found him to be very knowledgeable and helpful. His products came highly recommended and have proved to be excellent.

    Hopefully all will work out well for him.

    When I was looking for Hi Flow CAT's, he was my first choice. Problem was he was out of stock and a long lead time to get back in stock and he also did not guarantee no CEL.

    Evoflow was also out of stock but took a couple weeks to produce and Evoflow does guarantee no CEL which I have not had (yet).

    The flange mounting holes where too small and had to be drilled out - hopefully they corrected the issue.

    I paid $1300ish or a set compared to $2200ish so it was a good value for a good product.

    I've done business with GTO Engineering and they seem like great guys - planning to visit them my next trip to SoCal.

    +1 I had them on my 348 and thought they were wonderful.

    Exhaust components in the Ferrari world are a difficult market segment for a variety of reasons -- some technical, some legislative, and some supply-chain based.

    You can weld, that does not count as valid supplier.

    I'm blind in 1 eye cant weld that good anymore LOL

    Any donkey with a mig can weld them :)


    I'll have someone cut some flanges and do a few dozen. They are metal cores and did 30% less emission then my hyperflos and another hi flo cat I have, cant remember the name.

    Cats are one of the biggest make ups I ever seen

    China does not have the EPA laws so they use a more serious, non EPA wash to coat them. One of the chemists at heraeus metal explained it to me. All the best are from them right now
