Had my car in the shop for inspection and they told me the exhaust had some holes that needed welding. When I got the car back one of my CATS was rattling horribly...I know it's not a heat sheild it's actually inside the CAT. I just wanna know what would be the best CATS or test pipes to buy to replace on my factory exhaust system...PLEASE HELP!!!

 

Can anyone at all help me??! lol

 

"Best" depends on your intentions for the car, but you can get high-flow cats from Magnaflow or Random Technology, or OEM cats new at a dealer or used from someone parting out their car. OEM is direct fit obviously. High-flow breathes better but may require adapting pipe diameters.

 

I'm just looking for one's that will fit to the stock pipes, but can also offer some performances. Because I'm looking to buy a Magnaflow 14816 muffler at the end of the month too.

 

noobie, i am going to guess by you saying cats you have a v6.... but without the motor we can't direct you that far....


we need more info

 

What kraut said, hard to give advice with no knowledge of what motor your B5 has.

 

yeah it's a V6 2.8....So what knowledge can you guys give me on getting the right cats to fit my stock pipes??

 

just go to ecs tunning or any of our "performance" sites and order them... or you can do like the s4 guys and yank them out and "piggie" them(hollow)

 

Thanks for the advice! I'm gonna saw the cats off, hollow them n weld them back on!
