Need a center pipe cause mine's got a hole in the resonator, and work at a dealership, but even I can't get a good deal (under $100) on one, even a cheapie Goerlich.

So if I say.... go to the local junkyard, what other cars could I pull one off that would be a direct bolt on for my car?

Or should i suck it up and spend some $$$$ on a cat-back?

Buddy of mine has a Stromung cat back, UEL header, and high flow cat on his 2.5RS and I love how it sounds, plus he has a friend selling a header and cat just like his for $100, but I'd hate to spend the money on it if I can't find a good cheap mid pipe or cat back to go along with it.

So what are my options without having to cut and weld something up?

It's likely that if you have the original midpipe on your car, the flanges and bolts are rusted to heck and you WILL have to get busy with the cutter & welder.

Might as well get a custom one fabbed up and matched to a nice axle-back.

Yeah it's original.

I just have this thing about paying to have work done on my car, but at work we have no welder. But I don't mind cutting stuff off. :twisted:

Found a Borla/Rallitek high flow cat and midpipe on CL that I'm gonna take a look at, guy is letting it go cheap because he didn't like how loud it was (unfortunately he's keeping the header and axle-back).
