Catalytic converter location in 3B ES/2 conversion

[Alan Cordeiro]

agreed, I was surprised that I kept up with the STi....
(I'm all stock with only the Minhea C. chip upgrade.)

It could be he had stayed in 5th (out of six)... or that the STi
loses its edge over 100 where aerodynamics (Cd) are the
most important factor .
