hey,
during my brainstorming seesions I have at work at bout 2am, I have come up with a (most probably crazy/insane) idea. As we all know catalytic convertors work when they are warm, and to get them warm ASAP most major car manufactures put the cat as close as they can to the exhaust ports (just have a look at http://www.lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1555). Now sticking with this idea on my turboed V8, I'm thinking I could use 2 cats (one for each bank) bolted onto the headers before the turbo. I've probably gone overboard, but anyway it's just an idea and some feedback would be nice.
P.S. dont be too offensive
