This wrong cat help accelerate the process of it going bad along with my miss in two Cylinders.

The hi-flow cat MAGNAFLOW Tech rep recommended is this one: 9906HM or the 99036HM for one with an o2 port.

if you need to spend the extra bucks on a better high material cat the 47106 cat is made for OBDII systems.
That is an interesting reading. There are members whom had never reported misfire issues with no cats, so the OBD system being at fault from the cat design is a little up in the air with me. Could be, maybe its not though. That cat is an interesting reading, that is what comes with the direct fit replacements I want to say. Will not be as loud as the little 94000 series 106 units though.

I was saying you could turn them off....not remove the cats....
