Straight cat/ ehaust

hey,
i ot my hands on a hollow cat from a friend. i really want to use it except our stock cat is welded to the header. anyway, how do i get passed this problem. i have an exhaust that i want to put on with custom 2.25 in piping. anyway o getting around this problem using a new header. i was considering getting a dc header and getting a custom bottom section for the header. if not i guess ill just wait for the hp raceheader.

i hope you guys can help.
thx,

It's the DOWNPIPE that your cat is welded to. Headers=downpipe=cat=exhaust. So if you can find a downpipe that will attach to the bottom of the headers, and to the cat you got, then you shoud be set. I have no idea as to how to find that, maybe have someone custom make one?

Just a hint....leave the cat alone. You will loose a lot of low end power with the cat off.

Another hint, "Downstream O2 Sensor" which means check engine light, federal offense and will run like sh-it. You have to have a cat on the car.
