Default High Flow CAT Install

Bought a set of Milltek's from a forum member on here.

I have a shop that's going to do the install for me, but I hear that best practice is to use new GM gaskets / flanges. Does anyone have quantities and part numbers on what I'll need?

Appreciate the help!

you are going to want the O2 simulator "mini cats" too so you don't throw an engine light. I got mine from Big Daddy Garage. I have had my high flow cats on for over a month and no lights. My car sounds great.

Did you do the mini CAT only or the Mini CAT w/ Angled CEL combo?

With what he said! I have had mine on for about a year now and no CEL!

Does this work with aftermarket intakes?

I did the mini cat with angled CEL Combo. Not sure on aftermarket intake. I do have the AFE air filter and no engine lights.

I also have the high-flow CORSA cats but did not need the "mini cats" as you call them. I did consider getting them from Big Daddy, however.

My non-Z51 also has the Afe dry filter. No CELs since installing the Corsa cats 4k miles ago.
