    replacement catalytic converter - generic free flow

    I have a stuffed cat on my v8. I have a pretty free flowing muffler. I might as well do both cats at the same time. The factory oem cats are crazy dear. Anyone done generic and better flow?

    Cheers

    I was looking at the Magnaflow universal weld in ones for SWMBO's ML320, and they were going to work out at $95 each delivered. The ones for the D2 look like much the same price.

    They are supposed to be quite free flowing.

    don't forget about the fact that rh side requires a thinner cat to clear the tailshaft.

    Definitely replace with high flowing units. In the last few years they've gotten a lot cheaper.

    Generally cat converters only last around 100,000km.

    In all my years of driving cars and trucks (2 and a bit decades), I have never, ever, ever, had an emissions test. To be honest, I don't know of a single person who has.

    Do the constabulatory perform these tests, or other powers that be??

    Despite that, isn't the fine if your busted without cats in the thousands?
