L@@K what Mr Catts sent me...
After threeeeeeeeeee months of waiting finally got them...
This is the new CAT he is selling, supposed to be better flow and it cost me le$$.
Now I can install and complain about how a simple bolt on did not deliver the performance I was expecting.....
But I swear my car gained 5hp just by taking them out of the box
Seriously I have an exhaust that is literally falling apart. So, I guess I can justify the expense as a necessity and not a frivolous, impulse buy.

I know 240 is steep but shop around I would have saved maybe 50 on the part but had to pay shipping from that vendor. Brian sent the cat in w/ headers so shipping was free

My entire exhaust is shot in the a$$....the guy who owned the car before me had everything welded to gether so I could not salvage.

Yeah I grabbed one of the fastcats with my headers as well since my stock cat seems to be clogged up.
Looks nice, that's exactly the same products I'm getting in my box minus some bushings!

I spent $180 a few years back B4 Cattman offered the fastcats! I got mine from Warpspeed, it's the Stainless metallic substrate hi-flow cat! You can drop a pencil lead thru the honeycomb. The difference with the stock cat and warpspeed is very obvious when peeking thru the honeycomb!

Those look really nice but $240 for the cat wow, I know it's flanged already but you can get high flow cats for just under $100 from SpintechMufflers or Magnaflow, etc. I'll be anxious to hear how it sounds once they are installed though.

Installed
So I went to Maximuntuning and had these installed.
A week later I have spitting sputtering coming from mid-car someplace.
Sounds like a sewing machine when I let off the gas
Must be a gasket failure or maybe just need to retorque all the connections
have not had time to crawl under the car and figure it out.
Anyone else have an exhaust leak issue so soon after install?
Is that pretty common?
