Yes, but most are not carb or epa certified so quality will be less then stock, and alot of times the internals will just fall apart, even the expensive ones, look for ones made by ISO9001:2000 compliant companies..If I were you I would just install a nice resonator or muffler there..

Petey, would you say that if a cat does not have any precious metals in it whatsoever, then its not a legit simply owing to the fact that it does not have what it takes to be a good cat?

BTW, I am scheduled for a tune session on the 26th at KHC. Hopefully my clutch problems will be history by then. Let me know if you need details of my setup for the tune.

Hey let me have my fantasy wife!
A cat does need a catalyst to function which is a small amount of a precious metal I cant remember.

Was in a DIY mood after work and decided to slap together a catch can for my car. It is not perfect but it is baffled, has a drain, and does not neck down in flow anywhere.. I'm gonna make a bracket for it tommorow..Some of the pics look terrible, didn't realize the settings were screwed up until the last pic lol
HTC EVO can take nice pics, upload them to photobucket directly from the phone

i wonder what people would say when she pulled in the driveway with a new toyota venza which would cost 10k more than these baby.

i got to say i would kill for that thing as a daily car. i inherited her corrolla as a daily and am thrilled but the e90 is such a sweet car for cruising and sitting in traffic.

Chu, are those spacers hub centric slip on?? if so I might take them off your hands... LMK asap.

getting the car ready for Thursday @ NJMP and I discovered I need a new right front wheel bearing . kinda suspected that all along but I guess I was in denial. Hopefully JNZ or someplace local has them instock, otherwise I'm SOL.

Dan, all that does is show me there are too many people in this town with too much bloody money!

They are hubcentric slip-ons. I don't think my new wheels require any, and I don't think I can use them with a +24 offset. I bought them not thinking I would be buying wheels the same night, lol.
