Tim, your best bet is to get the 200cell canisters and have a muffler shop replace your existing cat pipes with those.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
23 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Funny thing is, the current owner is still not sure what he has
Ok, say I have an extra set of Catalytic Converters. Can I drill them to add more flow? Not remove all the internals but just open it up a bit?
Say I did remove all the guts. How do I keep from getting a CEL??????
Hummmmmm
thats it? cats are expensive $1.5k each.... fister D's are way cheaper and no cells.... to answer your ??? there is no way around a cell w/o an ecu reflash.
PSE & Fabspeed 200 cell Cat/Xpipe sounded fantastic on my C4S. If you have a spare set of stock cats, sell them and by a set of 200 cell cats or bypass pipes.
redridge AKA "Ferdinand" installed FVD's 200 cell cat this past winter. That combination with his PSE is so sweet. I had the pleasure of listening to it all the way to Hershey PA and back.

Add the equal length headers and you're good to go. Still no drone. Tim likes re setup. Heh
Guys you can also get an O2 sensor bung/extension and te CEL won't trigger BUT it still won't pass smog.
Tim, your best bet is to get the 200cell canisters and have a muffler shop replace your existing cat pipes with those.
Try a Carquest or any other similar a/p store; when I did a custom exhaust on another car, this is where mine were purchased. You will of course need to know the diameter of the pipe.
