I know this is pretty stupid, and it'* sorta early in the morning, but hopefully I'll just get an answer in the morning. Um, I can't find 1) The 180° thermostat and 2) the high-flow cat for my car. Does anyone have the part numbers or a link to where I can find those? I did a search and I couldn't find anything...

You could order the Tstat from Intense or heck Autozone would probably have a 180 degree in stock you could buy there. Not to sure about the Cat though maybe buy a universal direct fit and have a muffler shop take care of it.

Hey there,

Autozone probably will have a T-stat. I got mine from Partswarehouse.com I believe.

Jet is the one that makes it though part no.10115.

And for the Hi-flow cat, I got mine from Jegs.com

Intense-racing.com is a very good place to shop they have whatever you may need.

Hope this helps,

Tim

For the high-flow cat check out performancepeddler.com it was the cheapest I found when I did mine. They have a vehicle search feature to look up your car. I believe it would be a Magnaflow 91006 but you'll have to double check. The cat itself is a lot cheaper then the direct fit version but also factor in the cost of welding if you plan on having it done somewhere else. I stopped by a local muffler shop when I got mine and they told me $75 to install mine if I didn't buy it from them I laughed, then he said $60 I said ok and walked out the door. It'* a good thing to know people, talked to a friend and got it welded up and some new exhaust from the cat back for $50. I believe the direct fit is the downpipe and the cat that should just bolt in?? But you'll have to ask to make sure.

Also, enter in the coupon code EBAYROCKS to get an even better price.

So wait, Intense DOES have parts for S1 L67s? This I didn't know. I have some friends that are good at welding (they do it for a living), so I could give them a call. I need to go over to Autozone anyways, so fun!

No, Intense carries very few parts for the S1 L67. Check their site out. It says Series II and III.]

That'* what I thought...
So will the thermostat provide better performance alone?

I should, I know I put a 160 in my blazer and it made a big difference.

Do a search on E-Bay for "Magnaflow" and you can get a Magnaflow Hi Flow cat for about $57 shipped....

The size you need is 2.5" in and 2.5" out

The thermostat you should be able to find at any parts store...
