I'm goin to the jy and grinding the wells off a stocker. Guaranteed to fit. Only thing I'm worried about is egr. I'm gonna have to make a custom tube and flair it.

They're steel no worries. They're header-esque. Stock is an interesting design. It's tubular just crappy for renix.

You could start by looking up that code to see what it means.

Catalytic Converter. I would check to see if the sensor's even plugged in first.

The code descrip reads "Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold" which I would interpret to mean that the system thinks that cat isn't converting as well as it should be... might have to have it replaced.

Also, don't mind my terminology. I made most of it up.

I want something deep and rumble. Have stock exhaust now, but I am thinking a magnaflow muffler will be good.

Take the turndown to the muffler shop and tell them. They'll swedge it (expand it a little) and it will slide on. Trust me I've built full systems. That's the best way to go.
