Default Need some cats

I want to put some cats on my car just because it is super loud and I am scared to get next to cops at stoplights sometimes. I love how it sounds otherwise. Anyway, where can I get some? I don't know what size I need or what brand is the best and such.

Also, are the cats in the headers? I keep hearing that but that sounds wierd.

Thanks.

We need a little bit more info on your set-up. Are you running the factory headers or do you have aftermarket ones? It could be as simple as buying a set of random tech hi flows and swapping them out with the test pipes.

Alot of the aftermarket header systems will run all they way back to the factory exhaust. The cats would be apart of this set-up.

Very nice set-up. I have the same issue with my signature, for some reason it wont show up. Since you have the LG headers you can just call them and you can order some hi flows. As I mentioned earlier I think they are the Randon Tech cats but not totally sure. Call LG tell them you need some hi flows for the LG Pros and they will hook ya up!!

When I swapped mine out I unbolted the test pipes and unbolted where the LG headers met up with the stock exhaust and dropped that entire assembly out. Swapped out my hi flows for test pipes and bolted it all right back in there. Goodluck.

I have the LG Pro's with The Random Tech Cats! They are the option over their standard units.

Without cats the cars are noisier, but you must be smelling the gas fumes too!
