I'm looking at installing a MagnaFlow CAT and Muffler to my 97 RS, I have been looking all over the internet but cant seemed to find any. Even MagnaFlow sites doesn't have a CAT. Does anyone know of a site or sites that sells them? Any help would be appreciated.

Just find a universal 2.5" or 3" magnaflow cat. I know they make them because I have one on my car. Of course, I had my buddy who owns an exhaust shop handle everything including ordering.

They are actually in Ephrata and along 322 west so they might be too far

Just run the magnaflow without the cat. It'll run a little rich but itll make good power. Or do you have those dumb EPA standards to conform to?

Well it won't pass inspection without a CAT right? So I don't think I can.

Good system but don't waste your money. If you like the sound of that one, simply buy the muffler and have an exhaust shop run the pipe. will equal about half the price.

That's a nice muffler. I have this one:

EDIT: And I THINK this is my cat:

http://www.planetmagnaflow.com/shop/magnaflow-53104-660.html

My buddy who owns an exhaust shop does all my exhaust work so I let him handle ordering. Only thing I wish we could have done differently was make all the inlets and pipe the same diameter, but at the time Magnaflow was having problems with their distributor so I could only get a select few things. Oh well, I am happy with it. =)

So now would this set up work?

Muffler:
http://www.planetmagnaflow.com/shop/magnaflow-14850-464.html

CAT:
http://www.planetmagnaflow.com/shop/magnaflow-53005-651.html

Then I would just have to get a shop to run the pipe? Right?
What about the resenator? Just eliminate it?
