HELLLLLLLLLLP!!!!!!!

04- MANUAL- (+-) 95000KM...

After installing a CatBack System, it redlines at 7,000 - 7,500????
WHAT THE F#$@ IS HAPPENING...

 

what cat back did you install? did you install yourself? any lights on dash showing up?

 

Aftermarket - - and no lights on the dash, Professionally self installed..

After it warm up more it seems to be fine - starting to give a small backfire on shifting..

but all els it seems fine now..

 

Hello, could be a total coincidence. Your car could have started misfiring just as you were installing your pipe.
I assume you mean the rpms top out at 7k, not redline. I would suggest getting your codes scanned and check if ignition is in good shape.
I believe it is possible for misfires to occur without the CEL coming on.

 

Hi, solved problem.. Cat-converter was the culprit.. All fixed now...

 

I am sorry, but I have to laugh at this.

 

Only took ....................a year

 

Hey don't judge, maybe he's a busy man self, professionally installing other stuff...

 

 

This just made my day so much better

 

Did not take a year.. Only remembered now that I asked the question... And by self Professionally install I meant That it was not a redneck-glue and tape job... And yes, I have been doing a lot of self professional jobs for my self and mates... Car PC/ catalytic converter removal/ battery relocation/ oil catch/ lowering springs/ compleat stage 1 upgrade.. But thanks for the feedback...

 

I just have a quick question, wanna try to clarify something. Are you a certified mechanic at all or is your job in a shop doing work like this? Just curious.

 

what's a stage 1 upgrade

 

Lmaoooo

 

You know what a stage 1 up grade is we have all played grand turismo or forza ROTFLMFAO

 

Exhaust, cold air intake and ignition/coil upgrade..

 

I'm a Cisco network engineer.
But my hobby is the 8. And it's not my first car to upgrade.. But it is my first rotary

 

This thread is almost a year old...lol I'm sure he found the problem already

 

Hi WaCoNZ, I for one appreciate the update, even after a year.
It bugs me when people ask for help when they have a problem & then don't follow up with the solution.
