Need opinions on a Bosal Catalytic Converter

Twintzs · 02-11-2007, 11:06 PM

I purchased the SSAC 2.5" header and downpipe recently and a brand new HKS cat back last week. So, I am in the midst of installing but now trying to decide if I want to use the 65k mile cat or purchase a new one and have an ENTIRE new exhaust system.

So, I don't want to go Random Tech, so I was thinking between CATCO or Bosal. I think the Bosal one is "performance". Has anyone ever used a Bosal Cat? Opinions? I'm trying to purchase tomorrow so that I have everything by next weekend.

I did search but did not find much on the Bosal Catalytic Converter.

Thanks in advance.

Your stock cat should be fine, mine held great until 200k or so, and it wouldn't pass emission, I got a new one, without anything else it passed. I went with the Magnaflow Bolt on, 2.5" just under $75 shipped yo your door

Random tech, catco and Bosal should all be 2 1/4" while the stocker is 2.5"

Where did you find a magnaflow "bolt on" cat? Everything I have found was universal and needed to have flanges welded.

Ok, some I'm about ready to order. I just wanted to confirm that this converter will fit the new "aftermarket" exhaust system I am installing. Otherwise my wife will kill me for spending the money on something that doesn't fit.

Yes it will work, so will your stock ones. If your getting the Magnaflow too, What are you doing with the old one? I'll take it if you don't need it.
