Where in SoCal are you located. There are a few of us on here, and there are more across various other platforms.

I just bought an RX-8 in SoCal and had some issues also.. took it to Nick at Reliable Rotary and Racing in Santa Ana.. Nick has been working on Rotaries for over 20 years.

where are you at?

mainly want to ask some questions about how one of these is supposed to sound if you have a clogged cat.

or what symptoms of a clogged cat.

clogged cats have been known to glow red hot after driving
could sound like your engine is stalling

jturbo: rough running could be caused by a few different things.
are you wanting to diagnose yourself or need a recommendation to a local shop ?
