Mating Edelbrock TES with Magnaflow cat...

Should there be an issue here? I want to get the TES for my car, and supposedly the previous owner put a Magnaflow cat on the car before he traded it in to me...

Anything I need to know? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help...

Re: Mating Edelbrock TES with Magnaflow cat...

If anything a custom y-pipe will need to be made as all converters are different lengths...resulting in custom made y-pipes...also remember.

THERES NO SUCH THING AS DIRECT FIT. Something will always need to be tweeked a little.

So look for an exhaust shop in your area that can do it.

I need the same thing. I am buying my long tubes and exhaust with cat but need the y-pipe custom made because of length problems.

HAVE FUN!

The following system is a direct fit: Hooker 2055's (Jeg's 520-2055). Catco high-flow converter (Summit CTO-9118). Hooker catback (Summit HOK-16823HKR). Highly recommended.
