The picture is underneath my car. As you can see the exhaust manifold and catalytic converter are glowing red. This indicates a clogged cat the video link shows how the car is reacting to the clogged cat. The video is taken at full throttle right at 4500rmp you can hear the tone change this indicates the SSV is working. Notice the lack of power and hesitation due to the restriction.

So you have a fried cat? Or you like frying cats? What are those pictures of? I'm confused.
