Might as well get a high flow one if you plan more mods later on.

Flanges are the pieces welded on to the ends of the piping They bolt different sections to each other.


A properly installed high flow cat should not cause an engine trouble code.

I have a high flow on my car. They are probably cheaper than a OEM Cat or something, cheaper usually than most regular replacement cats I see.

A high flow cat will be louder than a stock cat, but quieter than a test pipe.
