Kooks says they have high output GESI versions that are better than their standard GESI green cats but they would not say if they would hold up to track use.

G sport by GESI has some that are rated at 1200 hp per cat but again I don’t know if they would hold up on track. I will probably call them and find out.

No. Catless was their recommendation.

Good to know, I’ll contact GESI anyways but I’m sure the answer will be the same

Perhaps but I track my car, so heat soak would be an issue... plus I might do cams later

Ahhh. BTW I talked to my track day guy (instructor). He has a ZL1 1LE & ran into the same fuel starvation issue on right-handers, so it may just be a tank-shape & fuel system design flaw... Said best solution is just to ensure the tank is full before sessions (pita, but unsure how else to address it as this point).

Thanks for the information, I’m glad to know it’s not just my car, yeah I fill up after every session
