Catalytic converter advice (2 Viewers)

need a new cat and associated gaskets, any advice? should I just grab a 200 dollar amazon deal and get the exhaust shop to install? or should I pay a bit more and get one with corresponding flanges and dig in?
the y pipe is a magna flow in good shape and I replaced the muffler a couple years ago

If you just have emissions, one modern universal cat like this one will work fine. If you have inspection, get two. Have a local shop put em in.

It makes a huge difference if you state make, model and year.

Magnaflow does direct bolt in, and since you are not in CA they are cheaper.
