Update: got her back from dealer with two brand spanking new cats installed

Sounds much, much better and the invoice was $4700.00. Ouch...!

Glad it worked out for you.

Gotta love those P-dealer prices.
Each Cat (OEM brand new) can be had for $1230 each. That's $2460. $2000 in labor?

Well if your ever in Miami and have a chance to stop by the local dealer (The Collection) you may better understand that labor cost

3. Cat bypass (Thank you Florida = no emmisions)

What should I do? I have FisterD's on there now.
Car is 40th AE with x51 engine.

Leaning toward bypass but few questions:
How loud is it with FisterD's & cat bypass?
Do you have to do anything to avoid CEL's?
What bypass pipe is best?
Does it really smell that bad?
if yu put on softronic flash it will ignore O2 sensors altogether. do it with bypass pipes - you`ll get nice power boost at hi revs.
