3 inch catback with no muffler (where can I get one?)
3 inch catback with no muffler (where can I get one?)
I need a 3" cat back system with no muffler. (Just all the pipes from out of the headers back) Does autozone do something like this?

Re: 3 inch catback with no muffler (where can I get one?)
That would be called the intermediate pipe, and yes. Dynomax has a 2 piece 3" intermediate pipe that autozone should be able to get. Do a search in this forum or on Summit's site and I'm sure you can get the part numbers of the 2 pieces.

I'm about to show my noob. 
So can someone tell me if this is right?
Engine-->headers-->intermediate pipe--->Y-pipe--->cat-->pipes to muffler--->Muffler--->pipes going out
or is that no where near right? if so, I'd need a 3" inter, y, and the pipes to the muffler right?

Engine, headers (or manifolds if stock), Y-pipe, cat, intermediate pipe, muffler, tail pipes

So I just need to call up autozone and tell them I need a 3" Ypipe and intermediate pipe? What are the odds that they would fit with a cherry bomb vortex muffler?

it'll fit any 3" muffler that's got a 14" case. The only issue is that you'll need to fabricate a tailpipe.

Well, I decided to go with an Flowmaster American Thunder 80 series. 3"in/outs. Getting it for around $325.
