3" cat needed.....perfer a tpi 3in

HI i am hooking up my new exhaust and need a 3inch cat to pass visual inspection for a salvage title. Basically they said the exhaust needs to be in functioning order......thats all. So, i need a cat i cat put on my car.....i prefer non gutted.....but a cheap gutted one might work.

THANKS, Shelby

I have a 3" one off my car. Not sure on its efficiency and you'd need to weld it on (it was cut off) but it should be fine for a visual. Let me know if you're interested.

It's not "cut up", just cut off. The ends are clean cuts. You could have an exhaust shop weld a 3-bolt flange to the y-pipe and the catback. Then put a couple 3-bolt flanges on the cat and bolt it in. Also have them cut a piece of pipe the same length with a flange on each side so you can swap the cat out. I'll get you a pic if you want.

Picture would be cool, also how much are you lookin for? See i have a hedman y-pipe that came with an adapter to go 3in cat....it slips on like the tpi cars. The other end has a two bolt flange that bolts to my 3in catback. See what im talkin about? I want to know how it was "cut up"

Thanks, shelby

What's your email? I'll send you some pics.

You can get a new cat for pretty cheap, you might be better just doing that.
