Default CAT brand favorites?
I'm looking at replacing get my entire exhaust, including the CAT. It been getting beat up with our Michigan winters and is rattling like a snake.

I'd like to order one online for replacement for a little better flow and a cheaper price then at a shop. They want about 200$ just for the cat at the shop.

I'd also like to buy the muffler in advance so it also is cheaper and maybe sounds a little nicer. I don't need a roar, but I'd like to know it's running.

Any suggestions or stories are appreciated. What to buy, what NOT to buy.

Thanks

Performance-Curve.com isn't a brand, but it is the only place I'll buy cats. I got my stainless spun cat from them for something like $60-70.

I think you are using a different definition of straight pipe, please elaborate.

It's confusing because he didn't quote the post he was talking about. It's this one, which does link to a straight pipe:
