Welcome to the site!

I moved this thread to the proper forum and deleted your other multiple forum thread about the same subject. Posting one question in one forum is plenty.

Many have. Magnaflow will be a great choice.

Here are your options,

part #94306, #94006, and #94106. They are listed in order from quietest to loudest. 94306 and 94006 are 12" bodies ( 94006 is louder due to less interior construction ), 94106 is a 9" body, also the cheapest at $67 per cat.

You can find all of those cats on Performance Curve, and Performance Peddler maybe, they dont carry 94106 I dont believe, and Summit Racing only carries the 94306. Either way these choices will flow much better than OEM, and increase sound volume greatly.

For installation, your exhaust shop should install them in the exact same locations, and move the rear O2 sensor after the hi-flow cats, this will keep the CEL out.

You say you have a 2005 and they are going Bad? Where are you located at? Is this a California or 49 State Truck?

Hey I bought two 94106 from performancepeddler $100 with shipping, I just ask them how about 2 for $100 and they said yes. My truck sounds mean now. I also just order my super 44 from them for 65 shipped.

All that page is is an informative page, I dont know what the $900+ thing is for, but I hope you are not planning to buy it, because that sounds like a direct fit kit which will be very expensive.
