Inlinefour has a nice price of 100 $ for a carsound high flow cat. http://www.inlinefour.com/carunhigcatc.html

So what do you guys suggest would the best choice to use with a JDM 4-1 DC sports header and Dc sports 2¼" cat back system

1. a JDM OEM ITR cat for 130$.
2. a Car sound High flow Cat for 100$.
3. A SMSP test pipe for 75$.

i'm about to but so i'd like opinions from you guys, all prices exclude shipping...
thanks for the help

Those cats are not custome sized and flanged to work . . .That is just the cat.

You will still need piping welded to length and a 3 hole flange and a 2 hole flange put on it.

so are you saying the Carsound from your guy will fit correctly for the price you mentionned, or i still need flanges and piping for the one from him too, and was that comment also directed towards the JDM ITR cat?

It will bolt rigt up. All you need to buy are longer bolts.

Both flanges needs different bolts. the Cat to Header needs longer Bolts and washers and the cat to B-pipe needs bolts cause the original bolts are studs in the OEM cat.

This si based on aftermarket cat info. I have no flow numbers and don't know anyone that can easily get OEM JDM cats.

Hey, I email SMSP at the address you linked me to, but he never responded to my email, I'm sure he's bussy and all, but.....

I just got a price quote from random technologies on a high flow cat with a 2 1/2 in collector for my R ( to fit my DC HEADER) $285. Why is the Random Cat so much more $$ than the Carsound? Is there that much of a difference.

Is anyone here running with a Random Tech cat?

Paying for the name, although that sounds like a bit much, even for them...
