Default D16Y7 98 HB: My cat is clogged, what other options?

WTB: D16Y7 CAT/HEADER

Thanks for looking. D16Y7 experts and exhaust freaks please shine your knowledge.

My stock d16y7 is bogging on my 98 HB. I've narrowed down the problem on to my cat.

1998 DX CAT & EXHAUST MANIFOLD:



If I use an aftermarket header, will it eliminate the cat altogether?
(There is only one CAT on my car when I checked)

What other options do I have as far as installing another header?

PMed..

So any 88-00 aftermarket header will do? ...what about the cat, should I get an EX piping (has cat-back)?

If you get an aftermarket header, you can get a cat from a SI or EX and put it in right after the header, and then have the exhaust run from there.

I think the Dx piping would be a bit tight for the si or ex Cat after the aftermarket header?

What the other people said will work, but none of it will be CARB legal. you can't move the location of your stock cat. So when it comes time to smog, you're gonna have to figure something else out.
