Cat Replacement
I might need to replace my cat soon. Any suggestions on what to buy? It needs to be legal and fairly cheap. I'm considering an aftermarket high-flo since original ones can get pretty expensive.

If you still have the original cat. on it, check with your local dealership as there was a recall on the original stock one. I got mine replaced for free last year....gee, it only had 200,000 mi. on it! LOL! It was so plugged up it was making the xj run like crap!
