Okay here is the situation, my cat is completely rusted out, so my car sounds like $hit. Unfortunatly with my first kid on the way I cannot afford a new one from an auto parts store because they are about 150 to 300 depending on which one and they are all weld on universal jobs. so I saw these and wanted an opinion. Where I am in Ohio there is no emmisions testing so that is not a problem...

Famous last words I know but I was on Ebay and found these what do you think...

My question is will either work, is one better than the other, and does any one have any other ideas. I have a question in to the seller for the dimensions but have not gotten a response as of yet.


BTW I hvae a 93 1.6l

These links are both for universal parts.

The cat is part of a pipe about 3 feet long, with a slight curve to it. Unless you buy that section of pipe from the dealer, or perhaps a muffler shop that stocks vehicle specific exhaust pieces, some cutting, or welding, or both will need to be done.

Removing your cat will likely cause your exhaust to sound a bit raspy at 3000 rpm's, with a moderately open throttle.

If you don't know anybody who can weld, a muffler shop would probably charge you about $50 to bend and weld a pipe.

Good Luck.
