Im trying to figure out which Cat Coverter to get for my particular setup.

Im gonna have Maintec GT Headers running to an Apexi Catback. I know the Catback is 2.5 inch diameter but am not too sure about the Headers.

Also, which brand should I order thats cheap and will last?

Thanks

Aviv

I have a Car-Sound cat. Had it for over a year now and not one problem. If you look around their site I bought the Universal Mirror Finish part number 54305. It is 4" Tall x 5-1/8" Wide, 9" Body, Length, 13" Overall Length. The 54305 is 2.25 in/out and 54306 is the same thing with 2.5 in/out.

Here is a link to their site.

i also have a carsound cat
no problems here

one thing that i really liked was the fact that the one i had had a o2 bung welded to it so i could install the second o2 without having to weld onto the pipe

i would get a 2.5 inch cat to match your catback

I had already had one welded to my cat back thats the only reason I didnt get one with the o2 bung in it. Also it may be easier (it was for me anyway) to get flanges made so then you can clamp the cat to the flanges (of course have a 3" or so pipe welded to the flanges). This way you dont have to cut your catback or your headers.

Do you have a link?

I dont suppose they have a 2.25 inlet/2.5 outlet Cat, do they?

Will I need an O2 bung in it?

Thanks

Im not sure about the inlet/outlet. You may have to look around their site. It would probably be best if you got one with a bung for your second o2 sensor.
