You only need two. The two places I know of are Troyer and Ebay

4W,

I will be putting on some high flow cats within the next two weeks. I'll let you know if my CEL shows up. Magnaflow claims replacing the four stock cats with two of their high flows will not trip the CEL. We will soon see.......

Here's the Troyer site with the different model numbers (I bought 94306):

standard piping size should be 2.5", and you shouldn't fail inspection with it.

Do you have to build a new Y pipe? seems like the second stock cat has the bend in it. Got any pics of of your Y pipe Brew. I got back In town last night, Im gunna get you those pics for you this weekend, finally got cold enough to hide in the garage without the wife nagging me about doing crap to the yard.

My cat's are after the Y before the muffler - they won't fit between long tubes and the Y unless you have a welder and a 3" ID cat flange.

To anyone ordering Pace Setter Long tubes - make sure you order the 3" cats - because it's very tight in between..

Pace Setter charges $125 for the 3" off road pipe you can get included with their headers - I didn't have a welder - I returned the 3 " off road pipe and used stock. Plus their off road pipe doesn't include O2 ports which pi$$ed me off because their picture of the kit SHOWED an O2 ported Y-Pipe. It was total false advertising on there part!!!! Carfull with Pace Setter - they are a$$holes to deal with..
