I have a 4-1 dc sports ceramic coated header(Unsure of outlet size, i think it's 2.5" correct me if im wrong), and a megan racing drift spec catback(2.5" piping? unsure of inlet, im assuming 2.5"?)

What cat should i buy ? if im right i need a 2.5" inlet/outlet. wanna order one by tonight....

I can't veiw your link, but if it doesn't fit. tell them, and send it back. A cat>back should be a bolted up. Sometimes hangers will need to be relocated but you shouldn't have to do any expansive welding to a simple cat>back.

Oh crap I read it wrong. Your original exhaust doesn't have a flange between the rear of the cat and the piping.

You'll have to get a flange welded to the cat to install your new cat>back.

I thought the product didn't come with a flange

Are you saying your Cat is welded to the rear of the exhaust piping? If so you don't need to cut your new exaust or buy a new Cat. You just have to have a flange welded to the rear of the Cat, so you can bolt the new exhaust to the rear of your Cat..

This what it needs to look like between your new exhaust and cat



This is what you need welded to the rear of your cat




I'm 100% sure your local muffler shop will have the correct diameter you'll need to bolt it up. The muffler shop charges me $30 for laber and pennys for scrap piping ect what ever I need
