Default Is this common in 1995 C2's?

Seems even low mile-well kept ones fail (mine did too)

Yes! Click here and get in on the group buy: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-forum/449092-dach-sport-cat-gb-official-registration-thread.html

FWIW, here are my numbers from the two times I have smogged the car (it passed both times). Stock cats. Done at different shops, so I don't know if a trend can be established, but it sure looks like it's getting worse. Good thing I'm getting the DACH Sport Cats!

Code:
Date		%CO2	%O2	HC (PPM)	CO (%)	NO (PPM)		HC=Hydrocarbons
MAX				85	0.50	695		CO=Carbon Monoxide
				50	0.47	717		NO=Nitrogen Oxides
							
1/6/2006		14.9	0	4	0.01	51		
		14.9	0	1	0.00	4		
							
12/27/2007	14.7	0.2	74	0.14	115		
		14.7	0.1	47	0.08	109

Thanks for the advice! Yes, I am considering the DACH. I also located an oem for the same price. Too bad the wait for the DACH is going to be a while since there are now a couple of builds in queue! Chris's product looks really good to me! No chipping yet, so I assume I had a meltdown of the cat for sure. Will find out soon .

mahalo,
Kurt
