Stock tailpipes on 3 inch system?
Does anyone sell the 2 1/2" pipe in the same black color, and same shape for me to have an exhaust shop weld up in place of the hooker tail pipes?
I like how the hooker tail pipes look and all, but in all honesty, I like how hidden my tailpipes are right now... the non-chrome/shiny look has grown on me... all the ricers are packing 6 inch tail pipes.... and here I am wanting it to look like I dont even have any... haha...
Oh, and what free flowing Catalytic converter would you guys recommend? Which would flow most? I know of Catco, but that's the only one I can remember lol.
Thanks in advanced

I would definatly recommend a Catco converter, i have a highflow on my firebird. The case is good quality and it wasnt too expensive. It was only like $140.00 and it came with a 3 year warranty. Several of my friends with 4th gens have them and pass emissions with flying colors every year. As far as flow goes, the cat is called a high flow, i do not know any specifics about its rating.

I know you may be able to get them from Edelbrock. Their kit looks bone stock and thats why I like it. They are the basic aluminum color but have the stock turn downs and everything.

I went to an exhaust shop and asked them about it... Said that it would be way cheaper for me to do it myself. Just find a piece of pipe about the same length I want. Cut off the tip at the angle I like, then spray paint it black. It wont be seen so no point spending a bunch of money on it anyways, right?
