Clogged up cat
I noticed my car has been losing some power over the last week so I took it to a mechanic today to look at. It came back that my cat is all clogged up and I need a new one. Before I jump and get an OEM one, I wanted to check here first and see if anyone had any good links for aftermarket cats. I think I read that some people are using a Car Sound cat. Are there any others to look into? Can you guys give links to good places that have them? I'm gonna check out ebay later tonight when I get home and see if there are any good deals on there.
Thanks everyone.

Unless the exhaust shop wants to cut off your cat and weld to cast iron you'll need a header also to replace the cat because it's part of your exhaust manifold.
I've been happy with my Car Sound cats.
