 Adding the line of Milltek Sport
cats and downpipes to your O.CT
chipped A6 will be a rewarding and exhilarating experience. A custom O.CT chip
is mated to the full Milltek turbo-back exhaust for results that speak for
themselves...
Milltek Downpipes/Cats A6 2.7T 6-Speed Only
Constructed of 60mm stainless with proper fitting of all
sensors and mount points (sensors are REAR of cats, not as pictured). Notice the full flex-pipe construction that insures proper fit,
no matter what the temperature the entire system reaches. 332hp with big fat
torque of 391 lb/ft that delivers.
Kit requires an O.CT chip and Milltek catback exhaust. Included
with the kit are Milltek downpipes/cats, 5 bar fuel pressure regulator, O.CT
Stage 3 chip upgrade). Highly suggested is the AMS upgraded Throttle Body Boot, 1 Pair HyperBoost
valves and a K&N panel air filter. 6-Speed only. If you own a previous Stage O.CT kit, your ECU will be
re-programmed. All O.CT A6 Stages have unique software by Stage.
Cats are premium quality with continuous stainless steel cores
with high precious metal coating for long term emissions control (see below for
technical details). Click here

Some technical details about the catalysts in
this phenomenal system:
These catalysts are
made from special stainless steel containing aluminum (called ‘Fecralloy’).
This material was developed in England in the 1970’s specifically to provide
resistance to oxidation at very high temperatures. The material is used as a
very thin strip (2 thousandths of an inch) and is coiled together to make a
honeycomb structure. Because the metal strip is so thin, the honeycomb has a
very low flow-obstruction. To reduce the flow-obstruction even further, the
honeycomb is made with 200 ‘cells’ (i.e. channels) per square inch (compared
with 400 per square inch for a standard catalyst ). The result is that about 85% of the total
cross-section is open. The honeycomb is held together by using a special
nickel-based brazing material which is applied in a vacuum. The finished
honeycomb is then coated with Aluminum Oxide, rare
earth metals, Platinum and Rodium. The Platinum and Rhodium are applied at a rate of 25 grams
per cubic foot, which compares with between 5 and 10 grams per cubic foot for
typical US aftermarket items. It is normal practice in Europe to use much higher
quantities of precious metals on catalysts, because European gasoline has more
impurities in it which gradually poison catalysts. If catalysts with such high
levels of precious metals are used with US fuels, the post-catalyst emissions
are extremely low and the durability of the catalysts is very good indeed.
One other good point
about using catalysts made of metal foil is that they are better at coping with
localized overheating than ceramic cats. The metal conducts heat better than
ceramic materials, so localized ‘hot-spots’ are avoided. This means that any
melting of the catalyst is extremely unlikely, even if it is exposed to rich
mixtures as a result of wild cams or modified engine management systems. |
