Hope this is not a repost.

Sard Japan has a midpipe for the ISF, which uses a high flow cat.
I am not 100%, but perhaps someone can read Japanese or translate all that info to English.

The can on the pipe is marked Sard. I found the web site, and found this:

http://www.sardracing.com/products/Muffler.htm

So, IMO, the two cans look like hi-flow mufflers and the assembly deletes the secondary cats, much like all the aftermarket exhaust systems for the F.

Although Sard is quite popular in Japan, I think most people would opt for the HKS exhaust system or any other true dual setup.

I had SARD Sport Cats on my SC430 - perfect build quality. SARD is very known in Japan, like TOMs, etc...

p.s. If u plan to fit Headers - these cats are far behind the Sec.O2 sensors - so u have to weld them into a position ahead of the Sec.O2s...

Hello Gamma,

i am sorry i sold the car with all aftermarket parts. BLITZ Intake, SARD Sport Cats, TOMs Frontpipe and TTE Exhaust were are nice combination. Noise levels are low, no drone with a nice deep growl of the 3UZ-FE V8. And of course added HP & Torgue along the upper RPM range...

regards
marcus

p.s. The bad thing was: all parts are very expensive as u might know
