2.5" pipe, high flow cat, and a 4"x18" slash cut tip. It ripped my friends' eardrums out The cops didn't care too much for it though It sounded pretty good too!

Ok on the front facing side of your throttle body there are two sensors, the one on left towards the vavle cover is your iac. It should be two torques bolts. Be careful taking them out. Slowly pull the iac out. Do not push or pull on the plunger. Apply a toothbrush and brake cleaner to it and put it back in.

So I was looking to change my exhaust, a little for performance, a little to sound beefy and because my cat is rusted like crazy and I need to fix my O2 sensor.

My question is what is the stock outlet size on a 98 sport xj downpipe.
Can I use this cat: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MagnaFlow-94...d68d56&vxp=mtr
With
This muffler: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/acc...er=276350_0_0_
With
This tailpipe: http://www.jegs.com/i/Dynomax/289/44171/10002/-1
?
And do I need to change the downpipe with all this? How hard would that be?
And does this seem like something you would try or what do you think I would get from this setup?

this is all well and good but he should have been runnin some water thru that jet pump on the back.... I always ran water thru the inlet with a hose to keep that plastic bushing in there wet and not heat up and come apart. jet-o-vators are cool to have on a berkeley pump;

Hmm how does the vacuum line going from the map sensor to the throttle body look?
