IF you go on rs25.com and look up the MS3 HFC either the single or dual that would be a good choice. IF you could find a cat from a 05 legacy 2.5i that would be fine as well the MS3 HFC's are really good pieces wont rust and will pass emissions easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pawlwawl06 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ya dude mine was $120 plus shipping, AMK imports. Got it today, AWESOME quality, stainless steel, looks better than the authentic Borla header when I ordered one last year. Can't wait to get this setup installed. Question for you Gee-otto, why did you go with the Magnaflow resonator? I want to pick out a resonator, just wanted to hear your thoughts. Does it quiet the exhaust a lot?

THE RZA Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Idk if ill do it, I'm too lazy to modify it, id prefer a 100% bolt on header, it was just out of curiousity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be easy to adapt actually but you would need to weld in two bungs up and downstream of the second cat which shtbxrr22 has a perfect example of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongemonster Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Well if I get a nice Christmas bonus I'll order one and guinea pig it.
