I'm looking for new 3-way Cats and trying to choose between Magnaflow, Dynomax, or Pypes Performance.

Is there really any difference in these? Any one out folow the others significantly?

Out of your listed choices, I would go with the dynomax mid pipe.

If I had to choose from a company not on the list, I would go with Bassani

Bassani makes some good stuff and go in easily. My Magnaflows took a little effort to get lined up but once they are on, they work great and are CARB legal for us Ca people.

I'm just looking for Cats only. I already have the Pypes O/R X. The car runs great and the AFR is right on, but it stinks, so I'm looking add the Cats to the X so it won't smell so bad.

Ah, I see now. Don't most of the companies get their cats from 1 source? I can't remember their name though....

I think I'm leaning towards the Pypes cats, since they are smaller, lighter (2.5lbs), CARB Approved, flow 330CFM, and I found them for $60 each at rpmoutlet.
