Just cut them off a few minutes ago... going to the shop later today to get pipes welded in...

Not too bad removing them... passenger side was easy... driver side was a bit more challenging, but the deed has been done.

You can get 2 high flow cats for a very decent price and just have a local muffler shop put them on. I went with the Magnaflow cats and I have been really pleased.

 

Bixby,

Thanks for the idea... I might look into that later on.

 

Would that be 2.5" O/D?

 

Yes, but in-flanged, meaning the ends are flanged inward to the pipe will fit into the cat rather than slip over like average flanged pipe does.
