Well i went to install my new header and i put my car o the lift and i have 2 cats! thats right...and its not a cat and a resonator, i know what a resonator looks like. what can i do toinstall the header?

Tank07

you have an 07 right?...........i noticed this during my last oil change........but it shouldnt effect the header......,just the down pipe

jbenso4

iTrader: (1)

yes i have an 07....i would have to cut the cat because the header goes down to far...and i hav an o2 bung right after the first cat.. am i just gonna haveto man up and cut the stock downpipe?

Tank07

ya we have 2 02 bungs right?

thats the only thing im not sure of.......i think its one right before and one right after....

jbenso4

iTrader: (1)

yeah it goes bung cat bung cat then res

Tank07

well i wouldnt cut ur stock DP, it should fit i think u just gotta play around wit it......i would search the How to section

....if not cut out the cat after the 02 bungs and get it rewelded.......or get a high flow cat DP

iTrader: (1)

thats what im thinking...not cutting the dp but i dont wanna pay 200 for a new dp

Tank07

true........but u will see gains from a new DP......thats the route i would go......cuz if u **** up the stock one u need to get a new one anyway.....

ecotecon18s

If you have the pacesetter, i'm pretty sure you either have to have a custom DP made or buy the one that fits it, which is 200+ dollars IIRC. That's why not many buy those...

would a zzp hook up?

The only thing that will hook up is a shorty. This is the case for all cars though, doesnt matter how many cats or what engine you have, there are very few headers that use the stock cat/dp assembly

At first I thought this was going to be about real cats. Damn I'm tired.

so what should i do?

Tank07

get the aftermarket DP..........since your practically full bolt on after that u can get a nice tune and every little bit will help

edit: re-tuned in your case

Tank07

TTR, Cobalt Addiction, **** tons of places..........just search.....but i would get a highflow cat, not a catless sound like **** IMO
