my friend just gave me an offroad h-pipe for my birthday back on the 16th, he left it at my house in richmond, and im at school and my dad slipped and told me about it, i was going to go this route anyways so this is a big help. since i couldnt find a mac catted h anymore since we think they stopped making them, i was gonna get an offroad h and have cats welded into it.

i dont really want to switch h-pipes every inspection and i like the sound of them with cats anyways.

so wheres the best place to buy 2 high flow cats. im guessing magnaflow is the best brand right?

are there different sizes im looking for?

2.5 inch pipe right?

Stock pipes are 2.25. 2.50 is better, so yes. Summit Racing sells them.

Stay away from the Catco ones. I have an off-road H with a pair welded on and one "fell apart" inside.

Back to stock H-pipe for now, but looking into a Magnaflow high-flow pipe. Hopefully, i can sell the 6 "junk" cats I have now and recoop some of the $500 cost

To the OP. Summit racing has quality high flow cats. They even have the all metal ones. (expensive)
