Dansk has a set for the low low price of $1350.00 or so. For that price, they better not set off a CE light. If anyone has found quality sport cats for less, please post it here!

Why not just get cat bypass pipes? 2000+ models have 4 cats (2 precats at the headers and 2 more before the muffler), so if you put in the bypass pipes, you won't get a CEL cause you still have 2 cats up front. Bypass pipes cost btw. $400-500.

I have been having a little trouble with CEL (1275 and 0133) with the high-flow cats I have been using, but I think that is because they are used. It looks like one of the units is bad and we plan on replacing it. If you have a good quality high-flow cat and the O2 sensors are placed properly, should be no problem.
