Ebay is your friend. Catco and Dynomax cats are fairly cheap on ebay. Just make sure you get 2.5" in and out to match your BBK pipe (if that's where they're going).

Never heard of them. Seeing as I've never heard of them AND they're from Vatozone, I wouldn't go that route. See if you can find someone local to let you borrow a catted H or X pipe for the inspection.......
