Purchasing Catalytic Converter
Hey, I would like to know any of your experiences/insights on aftermarket catalytic converter. I look up in the google and i see the aftermarket CC for 110 dollars comparing to OEM about 500 dollars. Since my del sol is missing a CC after swapping a new jdm b16a engine.
my plan with the del sol is daily driving and possibly putting a turbo sometimes in the future. for now i need cc for legal reasons.
I m thinking of two choices: Go to junkyard and pull out a used CC. or buy a brand new aftermarket CC made by Eastern cc.
are there any causes and effects between an oem and aftermarket cc?
thanks in advance

Re: Purchasing Catalytic Converter
What state do you live in?
Most junkyards do not sell used catalytic converters for legal reasons. I would try and find a used Civic/Integra one on craigslist.
Why not just run a resonated test pipe painted black?
If your state doesnt do smog, the $110 one should do the trick.
