Default Need cat recommendation for rumbler on lowered car

I need to install cats on my car. Daughters want to roll with me this summer and I do not want to them passing out from the fumes.

What cats work well on a lowered car with 3' duals?

Lowered or not any cat should be fine....you can find a few different brands for 50-80 bucks @ jegs/summit

I've been looking for a cat that was smaller than 4" in diameter. That's the only setback that I've found so far. Let us know if you find a low-profile cat, because I sure as heck cant find one...

They're still 4" tall though. I wish someone like spintech would make a 3" tall cat... since they're the masters of low clearance mufflers (oval inlet/exit).

Those looks good, but damn I do not think they are clamp on. I will have to take the old duals off and weld the cats on. Not a good way to spend a day.

I guess your TSP duals are dumped at the axle? I want to run a catless setup but have been researching just how bad it will smell. I wouldn't think it would be too bad if the exhaust is ran all the way out the back.

True, maybe I will route them out the back. hmmmmmmmmmmmm
The smell lingers on your clothing.
