I am most likely going to have to replace the Bank 1 Cat... Can I replace with a Hi-Flow cat? What are the dimensions I'll need for a 2002 Firebird? Thanks.

Re: Can I use a Hi-Flow Ebay Cat?
Bank1 sounds like an 02 sensor location. I recently replaced my cat with a magnaflow 3" in/out along with new 02 sensors in it. No codes yet.96 White M5 Camaro. Manual everything. Magnaflow cat, dynomax dual outlet axle back. Swapped to a disc rear with 3.42s and a torsen differential, kyb gr2 rear shocks, moog rear endlinks.

Re: Can I use a Hi-Flow Ebay Cat?
A bad cat can fry o2 sensors as well as just set codes due to improper exhaust flow and temps. Do u have a loss of power especially in the upper RPMs? After a long hard drive the CAT can end up glowing red due to exhaust heat building up. These are signs of bad cat that can lead to o2 sensor failure (along with egr). If not I would figure out which of the 02 sensors the code is refering too and replace that. (there are 3 on mine I believe - on before and after cat and one in one of the exhaust manifolds.) I'm not sure what year but I think later on they had 4 with one in each exhaust manifold as mine is a 96.96 White M5 Camaro. Manual everything. Magnaflow cat, dynomax dual outlet axle back. Swapped to a disc rear with 3.42s and a torsen differential, kyb gr2 rear shocks, moog rear endlinks.

I just went reading through OBD trouble codes and bank1 codes can refer to CAT performance but they apply to lots of other circuits as well. What is the number of the code you are getting?96 White M5 Camaro. Manual everything. Magnaflow cat, dynomax dual outlet axle back.
