HIGH-FLOW EXHAUST CLEANUP FOR 2.500" DIESEL SYSTEMS — G-SPORT DOC (DIESEL OXIDATION CATALYST)
NOTE: G-Sport DOCs carry a lighter loaded catalyst and are not EPA compliant. They are intended for custom and motorsport diesel applications where emissions compliance is not required.
The G-Sport DOC (12025) is the 2.500" version of the 12030 Diesel Oxidation Catalyst — the compact member of the diesel line, sized for smaller-displacement diesels and tighter exhaust routing. The 2.500" inlet/outlet welds into 2.500" tubing, and the 200 CPSI S-Wound metallic substrate keeps restriction low while cleaning up exhaust odor and haze on custom builds.
WHAT IS A DIESEL OXIDATION CATALYST?
Unlike the three-way catalysts used on gas engines, a DOC is an oxidation catalyst built for the lean exhaust of a diesel. Its precious-metal coating oxidizes carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons — the compounds behind diesel smoke smell and haze — into carbon dioxide and water as exhaust passes through. The result on a custom diesel build is a noticeable cleanup in exhaust odor and visible emissions without the flow penalty of factory aftertreatment, in a compact weld-in package built on GESi's proven S-Wound core and stainless construction.

APPLICATIONS & FITMENT
Built for custom and competition diesel exhaust systems running 2.500" tubing — smaller diesels, swaps, and off-road rigs where factory aftertreatment has been replaced and compliance is not required. Running 3.000" tubing? See the DOC 3.000" (12030), or the 6.000"-body DOC (12230) for maximum substrate area.

INSTALLATION NOTES
This is a weld-in unit for 2.500" exhaust tubing. Install with leak-free joints, downstream of the turbo where exhaust temperatures remain high enough for the catalyst to work effectively, and with adequate clearance from wiring and heat-sensitive components. Full best practices are in our G-Sport Installation Guidelines.
