Cheap 3inch cat?

Where can I get a cheap 3inch high flow cat? I don't see many 3inch cat's for our cars... Just wondering who makes them and for how cheap? Since I'm in Cali, I don't wanna take the risk of just running straight 3inch all the way...

well nobody makes a bolt in one...

I'm running a magnaflow (carsound) 3" universal cat with air hookup. custom welded flanges for my RB exhuast. the cat was under $100usd.

been in there for a year. and with no airpump or ACV.

Wow, thanks for the links and heads up. For all you running that Carsound 3inch cat, does it heat up much? I'm thinking even if it does get really hot, I can just punch it out...

Anyone ever ordered from testpipe.com? Just want to know if they are legit.
