    Disable Cat Protection

    Just installed SSV1s and SS HJS catted section 1 on my car. Apparently, HJS recommends disabling cat protection when using these cats, according to this comment made by Obioban .

    I compared a binary with cat protection disabled to a stock one and found that k_ti_f_kats_max differed between the two. On the stock binary, it is set to 1.350 and on the binary with cat protection disabled it is set to 1.000.

    I'm assuming this is some multiplicative parameter that richens the mixture by 35% when the cat protection temp threshold is reached. If so, setting it to 1.00 would make sense, as it would keep the mixture the same.

    Can someone confirm that this is all that's needed to disable cat protection? Just want to make sure I don't need to modify anything else.

    Confirmed! Yes that’s how you do it. You can also set the EGT thresholds to max if you want to totally disable it, but the neutral setting is good enough.

        Does this mean that the only purpose the EGT serves is cat protection?

          Yes unless you're running CSL software in which case I read an old comment from Terra that apparently it does have some role in fueling calculations.
