hows about this for a solution then, you can have my old cat, then you can either remove all the inards and gutt it and solve it that way, or you can cut the "flanges" lol, off and use them on a piece of exhaust pipe and re-weld the std cat flanges onto you exhaust pipe to allow it to be removed when more cash arrives. thats gotta be the cheapest option.
let me know if ya want the cat
