Am thinking about fitting a catalytic converter to my R4 F6, after my partner reported obvious noxious smelliness when following me in her car. Just a thought, but has anyone else tried this?
Jetex sell a Classic Car Converter (available on ebay for about £240), which looks like a solution, but am thinking that a pre-lambda-sensor-era Cat of about a tenth of the price which is new old stock for a 1990's Fiat Panda or little Rover could be pressed into service...... Fitting it close enough to the engine may be an engaging puzzle. Maybe the cat in place of the wheel-arch silencer & use an under-body silencer instead?
All ideas would be welcome! Also may relieve me of any ironic guilt at driving a non-politically-correct but happily non-obsolescent vehicle.
