Default Meow--Anyone have a functioning cat for an '86?

Looks like I may need a cat for emissions, and my car did not come with one when I bought it in 2010. I was thinking of re-installing a stock '86 cat. I figure I'll lose a few hp, but at least it'll be legal.

The car currently has a Vitesse Stage 2 setup with 72lb injectors, and a homemade looking 3" exhaust out to the muffler. If there are other alternatives, I'd welcome the comments.

Anyone have a cat they want to sell? Is there a go-to place to get them?

Thanks!

Tim

you're better off getting a new one. a new one will work better than an old used one.

We were just discussing this in Tom's CA smog thread.
Consider this a one time use item....cheapest I've found that meets CA emmisons.
