I got an exact fit for $130.00(us) but it was not a high flow. Let me know if theres any difference in power. If so, I might just purchase myself one. But only if its worth it.

So on Thursday I look forward to this.

Also i phoned probally 5 other parts stores, all quoting me over 300 dollars for a stock CAT, telling me they couldnt get a High flow!
I guess you couldn't wait for my email then.....
TOO BAD! I was gonna sell you one for alot cheaper than that!

Problem being:
How would I have gone up to Edmonton to buy it? I cant run the car over 2000 rpms without it jumping around.
And how would it of gotten here?
And finally UGH! Thats a hell of a lot cheaper!

Funny, that product was added today too!
It was added today as per the email I sent him back when Matt asked me to price one out for him. He lives about a 1.5 hours away from me! Since I know my price for them, I added them to my Store too! i do that with all my quotes I get from people for items.

My comment was in response to the CANADIAN price he actually paid for the unit he DIDN'T buy from you.

Sounds like the grids were partially blocked, and you cleared them up with the kick. It won't take long to clog back up, and you don't want that Cat crap to migrate to your resonator or muffler.
