Default High Flow OBD-II Cat?

Hello Everyone.
I'm a new person here. I had the name Intrepidv614, but I can't remember my password ( nor my answer to my question ) so I decided to just make a new one. .

Well anyways, I recently lowered my car with tein s-tech springs. Car is sitting pretty low. Especially for the roads of good old Pennsylvania.

My question is. Well I guess I bottomed out somewhere, when I first got it lowered, not knowing where I can drive fast and not, and I think I broke my catalytic convertor.

I notice a weird noise coming from under the car at somewhere between 1500-2200 rpms.

I really need to replace it, because it is annoying as hell. I have a megan racing cat-back exhaust system, that I am installing soon as well.

Friends recommended just taking off heat shield, and hollowing the cat, but with OBD-II I dont want to have a CEL.

Can someone please recommend a high-flow cat for my 97 honda accord EX( mind that I think it has a o2 sensor in it or something)? I'm only 18 and not looking forward to spending a ton of money on a cat, that I might break again right down the road, but I dont want to buy a test pipe from ebay or something because of no O2 bung.


Thanks so much Justin

No, I will be having Meineke do everything. I dont see anything on that page that says anything about having an o2 Sensor hole. I was looking at carsound ( magnaflow ) convertors, but im not sure which one will fit mine.

measure your current cat and then compare the measurements given by whoever makes the aftermarket cat. this is the same magnaflow cat that's on tasauto.com
http://www.ptuning.com/html/It...20Fit
and if that one doesn't work there's a bunch of universal obd2 cats on the site

I can't really measure the cat. cuz it's lowered but that's a nice cat for a good price. Can anyone verify whether this cat will work or not ??????


Thanks!!

Random tech has a bolt on high flow cat for OBDII's or you can get one from http://www.Kteller.com where they can custom flange and weld on a o2 bung for you.
