Why are your cats bad? If they work, sockers flow pretty damn well.

yes i believe that one is bad. sounds like someone hitting a tin can when i get on it and it is throwing codes. just trying to get all my avenues covered incase they wont replace it since i have headers and true duals. especially true duals since they are welded and it is not bolt on/

Cats are covered under a 8/80,000 mile warranty long as the headers are CARB cert you should have no problem. I take it you have done the BFH test to the cat and it rattled? BFH big f**king hammer test. rubber mallets work well.

Did you get the predator yet 02denali????

no i am getting married right now and it has put quite a damper on the toy fund.no predator yet. i do have the 80,000 mile warranty. but i have true duals. since the dealership cant bolt it on i figured they would not replace them.yes the headers are carb cert. jba ceramic coated. what is your experience or opinion on wether or not they will replace it. maybe i will have to pay extra labor.

Well I have a Car Sound cat on my F-150 and it works great. I have used quite a few of these in the past on other vehicles with no problems.

They are reasonable about $60-80 each. I bought mine from Mufflerdeals (mufflerdeals@aol.com) on ebay.

Hope that helps!
