Default RE: Problem with the cats


ORIGINAL: sals7tmp

well one of my cats are rattling. i know its because something rusted out in it, but i just cant cut it off bucause the cops are really fussy about sound were i live. i dont have the money to replace the whole exaust and i was wondering if there was a cheap way to fix it.
If it comes down to it i guess i'll just have to move and cut off the cats and leave it with strait pipes. haha
any info will be greatly apprecated.
o and i almost forgot it is a 1990 5.0 with stock exaust sept for the headers. i dont know what they are, they were on there when i got the car but they are ment to fit the stock exaust.
Not really sure what you mean by "cheap" because what is cheap to one person is expensive to another. But a decent solution for under $300 is this

X-pipe with high-flow cats built in

Those are listed for $285 with free shipping. It will sound better than stock and will actually slightly boost your HP. And it has cats installed so the police won't bother you
