Default header, cat, exhaust, installation problems

does anyone know if a 2.25 cat will bolt up to a 2 inch header. The reason i ask is my header is 2 inches and exhaust is 2.36. Ive heard that the 2.36 will bolt up to the 2.25 no problem but but i dont know if it will bolt to the 2.25. i can get a custom 2 to 2.25 cat for 170. but if the 2 inch header will hook up to the 2.25 cat i can get a 2.25 in and out cat for 70. if you know please fill me in.

of course cuz you aint got resonator that why...if you are running comptech, im just curious why do you run 2" header and 2.25cat and 2.36evo....size is not constant i affraid you might not gain as much as u wish......

u can make anything bolt on anything...talking about 2" and 2.25 aint' a problem but you shouldn't do it...cuz piping is not constant the same size...performance might get worse or gain less than it supposes to gain...

well i think you should buy a 2.25 header and cat 2.25 and piping 2.25 for maximun benficial....exhust inlet 2.36 is ok...cuz at this point pressure going out at bigger diameter with shorter distance 2.36" inlet to whatever ur muffler tip is...

im sure you know im not recommending 2" header with larger piping after...no point just waste money...u might as well save up little more and do everythign at once
