Jacklet,

Do you have a high flow catalytic converter that you can fabricate to fit an 87 951?

Jacklet,

I need to run a cat. What would you charge for a fabricated high flow that is fabricated (flanges, etc.) to bolt in to my 951?

I will need a cat eventually for the car since I have t pass emissions here in TX. Would a muffler shop be able to make one that slips in to my 3" fabspeed exhaust like the testpipe does?

I am hoping this one I ordered from Summit will work. I didn't check to see if it would fit a Turbo or not before I ordered it
