I wanted to switch out my cats with my new magna-flows high flo's, delete the resonators in my tips and upgrade my H-pipe. Two garages said they couldn't do it, and the third one said they estimated around $225. To me this seems very high, especially because he is using very little of his own material. Should I tell him to keep both cats and knock the price down to $150?

I've read on here that a few people have made theirs bigger..or maybe I misread!

Are you removing all 4 cats or just the rear cats? If all four then you replace the 4 with 2 high flo ones. If you are having the rears removed and leaving the front stock cats on do not add any new cats, just straight test pipe.

Alright cool, I'll just delete the rear 2 (because I'm leaving the front two for emissions reason)

Cats from a marauder are worth $50 cash each - $200 for all four.

Look at this article. sounds like what you want.
