cats quetsion

[mattsho1993]

im a cheap bastard and i found a cheap replacement y-pipe but just to ship is like $125... what would happen if i cut off the cats and replaced with flex pipes? ATX

That is a lot to ship a y-pipe, maybe thats why it is so cheap. How much is the y-pipe and is it for an ATX?

I wouldn't use flex pipes due to their limited life. I would use straight pipe.

Do you need cats though?

yeah bubba said he'd hook me up for like $60 for the y-pipe! my cats are like open on top and bottom i had the bottom welded helped a lot but still it wont last forever plus my cel is on annoying lol and i just figured if i use flex pipe it will help with a possibility of a bad bend or any fitment problems... I also thought about taking them off and i have a four foot paper that i use for drawing and i could trace the pipes to make sure they are the right angles, if i went the route of sleeving it instead... just need advice i need the y-pipe i will probably get it but i need a temp fix till the money is right i have a lot of birthdays coming up, mine my nephew my daughter etc. so if i can cheapely get away with this or something for a time it'd be great...

honestly, you're better off just saving the cash and ordering one from SHOsource. buy once, cry once.

Unless he gets rust in his eyes. I hate it when I do that.

The cats are straight so just use straight pipe.

Shipping still isnt $125 though.
