What is Catalytic Converter?

This is the one after the the 4-1 header:


So now, what is inside the Catalytic Converter and why it must removed?

For long term usage all the dust and chemical will blocking on the Catcon,
and our vehicle will be getting bad airflow and high fuel consumption from day by day because of those chemical and dust blocking inside the cotton of Catcon.




Usually in performance and fuel consumption wise,we would suggest to replace with direct flow center bullet or twister bullet to make a better airflow just like below:

Im glad that I didnt do a mistake by changing my OEM center bullet to an aftermarket brand. And, my claim that my car response better is also true. The Marco center bullet's inside is like the pic.

Plus, if Im not mistaken, catalytic converter got some rare minerals inside. The minerals is getting lesser and its getting expensive. So why not sell the minerals to a merchant? LOL. By the way, I dont remember which channel was it. Was it Discovery or NGC?

Damage from the track day

Hahaha. I thought there will be no problem after the track day. So checkup my car today and found out that the front tyres thread distorted already. Hehehe. Sorry Mok :P

Then there's the bocor exhaust. AGAIN!?? I had seal the leakage TWICE in this year. And it leaked at the same area. Gosh, so finally I asked the shop to make a new piping from a better material, and 'alang-alang menyeluk pekasam, biarlah sampai ke pangkal lengan'; I also change the center bullet to a branded one, Marco. Hmm.. Marco Seremban drift team? Hehehe. I thought Marco is a workshop.

I dont want straight pipe coz I dont want Getz to sound like a BENG car. lol. That is also the reason I never interested to change bodykit and what so ever that related to cosmetic look. BENG car sucks. Especially those with aftermarket HID. Looks like fast, sounds like fast, but Im slow. For what?! I prefer OEM bodykits coz its already there so I dont have to spend RM again. Hahaha. OEM bodykit nice what. Some more it's very durable.

So there goes my RM again.. Sigh. Oh bucket, please hold on a litle longer. Hehehehe. Changing the whole piping is no cheap at all.

Some OEM parts sucks for this car I guess. Korean car sucks. Big maintenance.


Bye-bye old center bullet.

Marco center bullet.

New piping and the new bullet in place.
Results? Much better acceleration. And a lil bit noisy. Hehehe.
