      cool man. I used a 20% off at JCWhitney and got it for 252 out the door. Partspeddler was 272 best price.
      Hopefully this will get my other car back on the street.

          How were the welds on your direct fit cat? The flanges that meet the manifolds on mine were cracked and not sealed. Just curious if your had smoother welds.
          I am in contact with Magnaflow to see what they can do.
          The flair flange was also bent. when I took it out of the box (there was no attempt at packing this thing.. they just throw it in a box.

            thats a huge bummer

            mine was welded in the same place, but smoother and with no holes!


            ive nver had an issue, but i do run the manifold to header gaskets with a single doughnut and hondabond HT on both sides
