think about this
Do you want to go lets call it a "tiny bit street illegal"
the best Gain you can get out of a Cat, is to Jam a Paddle Drill Bit down your Existing Cat. Meaning you have no Cat at all.
If you have to take emmissions very often, and do not want to go to a junk yard, and invest in a swap cat for those times, then you don't want to do that.
But that's what i"m going do , when i get off my lazy @$$.
Second, do you want to PAY for a STAINLESS STEEL finish on a part of the car, that no one but your Repair Mechanic will ever see.
yeah me neither,
OBX is a decent affordable Brand. However, a Catalytic converter is not a Complicated Thing, with moving parts, and High Quality grade 5 steal and BLAH BLAH BLAH ... A Catalytic converter is a Peice of Pipe, with a Honey Comb of Ceramic inside of it, A monkey could make one. Its heavy and very exhaust restricting.
Racing Cats, are simply a Piece of pipe, with a ceramic honey comb in it, cept the holes in the ceramic are a little bigger, letting a little more air through. Point Being, you get as much gain out of a decent $50 Cat as a $199 Name brand Cat.
just my 2 cents

do you honestly think you can not have TOO much air flow and not enough fuel and spark.... and do you not think that no cat is over kill for his application?
hell if thats the case we should all just run a straight pipe off the manifold (or header) and jet it right out the fender..
