Bonez is out of the question. Besides, carsound cats are like $75canadian locally. Seems to me that they're good quality cats from what I read on the net.

Everything from bonez is over priced. Especially the intakes.

word. I don't understand how they can even sell them for that price. You can get one of those adapters on ebay for like $4 then buy a K&N for $30 and save yourself a good $100.

Fingers, when you find out what replacement cat converter you are going with please shoot me a pm. I am also trying to replace mine and have only seen Bonez as a reliable (known) option that is street legal. It is just way too much. Got a link for the carsounds?

Thanks

I can get them localy for a good price cuz I have a deal with an exhaust distributer. Check around localy though, cuz with the added cost of shipping, I dunno if it would be any cheaper or not.

Ah , ok. Before i start looking around, performance wise, the high flow cats from bonez, are the best? I'm more interested in performance over price, i'd be willing to pay more for the bonez unless i can find something that matches the performance for less, anyone know of any?

Magnaflow makes good stuff.. Most if not all of their stuff its stainless steel, so its not going to rot..

Because of the different coefficients between the stainless cat and the mild steel general brand cats, I'm pretty sure magnaflow's cat will NOT glow, but don't hold me to it.

It's quality stuff, though, Fingers.
