Question Anyone running JBA or Solo Cats behind a turbo or supercharger?

Wanted to put high flow cats(and maybe shorties) on now and then maybe do a Turbonetics kit later on.

Will either the JBAs or Solos live behind a turbo with a conservatve tune?

I'd be happy with 500rhwp (L99)

Thanks.

I would save your money, then just do a nice TT kit. It will be cheaper in the long run and make a lot more power.

I am not sure with a Turbo how they will do but with many FI situations people have had there cats start to collapse there is sever threads about that on here, however others will argue this will not happen with the appropriate tune. I had the jba on my car with long tube on a maggie set up but got rid of them just to keep from worrying.

I've had JBA cats and long tubes on my car for 25,000 miles. No issues to date, took the exhaust off a couple of month ago and there werent any noticable problems
