Default What kind of high flow cat can I buy for my XJ!

Im ordering a whole new exhaust for my Jeep, already got the tailipipe and muffler (Rusty's with Flowmaster 40 and 2.5in pipe) but im wondering about the cat. I google 2001 Cherokee high flow cat and come up with just a bunch of generics, so my question is what do I want to buy.

I want a 2.5 pipe on it match the muffler and tailpipe but I dont need an 02 sensor port do I? I don't think the 01's had those in the last cat with that goofy pre-cat system. Also, anything will work wont it, like as long as it welds on fine I'll pass emissions?

This is the one i think im getting if it will work http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...EAST83166.html

If you plan on doing any offroading you may want to consider the metallic converter. Ceramic is very brittle and a good bang could shatter the internals.

True.. but UPS is next day to anywhere in Virginia. So depending on when the order is placed it should only take 1-2 days to get to you (depending on processing time).
