            The only thing I don't like about the catcos is how light they are. I put mine on my car for a few weeks and I hit a rock in the middle of the road one day (unavoidable) it messed up the cat so bad that all the honeycomb was broken inside. With the stock cats that wouldn't happen because they're built tougher.

              I'm VERY new at the car enthusiast thing, but when I was suggested to get a 3" catback with my flowmaster, they meant the Catalytic Converter?

                no, a catback is everything after the cat.

                  I am currently looking into adding one of these's cat's.....Because of the 3 inch inlet and outlet should I be worried about any sensers being triggered?

                    After the cat: S-pipe goes to I-pipe to an axle crossover pipe (part of the I-pipe on most of our cat-backs) to the muffler and tips.

                    Most systems you buy will include all of these. Mine came w/ everything but the 's-pipe' which was sold separate as a "v6 adapter"

                    With all that said, i would also get the high flow cat at the same time.

                        Yes, the cat must be welded on.

                          Sorry to say, but yep. You'll most likely get the SES light in a matter of time.

                            If and when the SES light triggers what has been the solution?
