All new cars have catalytic converters as standard. This means that for most recent cars (from 1992 onwards) the law states that you must have a catalytic converter fitted for MOT purposes. Fortunately, Jetex can now offer universal fit road legal sports CATs. They are ideal for road or track use, and are available as 100 cell or 200 cell units, to fit pipework ranging from 44mm to 70mm (3"). Ideally, they can be used in conjunction with our range of Universal Exhaust Parts or as stand alone units with OE exhausts or other performance exhausts

Sports Catalytic Converters             Metal Foil Catalyst Interior


Materials  The catalyst outer casing is made from stainless steel. The interior substrate is made from a vacuum brazed ultra-thin metal foil. The foil itself is a combination of iron, chromium and aluminium. This creates a stainless steel of the highest quality. The susbtrate is therefore far more resilient than ceramic core substrates and so is ideal for performance use. Brazing during the manufacturing process ensures that the core is extremely strong and unlike unbrazed cheaper substrates will not collapse due to 'foil bending'.

100 or 200 cell Units  By offering two different cell densities, we can cater for applications that require the best gas flow possible (100 cell) and for those applications with the latest version of 'OBD2' on-board diagnostics (200 cell).

Versatile  As these catalysts are universal fit, they can fit a wide range of pipe diameters and engines with power outputs of 125HP to 375HP. They are also suitable for normally aspirated engines as well as turbo or supercharged engines.


It is fairly simple to decide which sports CAT you require:

 Choose a catalyst that can handle the power output of your car at the moment (assuming there will be no more modifications), or, if there are to be more mods, the power output once the car is ready. Bear in mind that if you have twin CATs, each CAT will only need to cope with half the total horsepower!

 Check how much space you have to fit the catalyst. If you have limited space, you may have to choose a smaller CAT than would be optimum. However, as the catalysts are more free-flowing than standard CATs, you will still reduce back pressure!

 The next step is to decide whether you need 100 cell or 200 cell substrates. 100 cell will give the best gas flow, but remember that for cars with the latest version of "OBD2" on-board diagnostics, you will need 200 cell substrates. You can identify OBD2 CATs by the presence of two lamdba sensors, one on each side of the standard catalyst.
