Bolt-on catalytic converters - experience?
Does anyone have experience with any bolt-on catalytic converters?
I'm curious, because I just bought one online, (am still waiting for it to arrive). It seems to be a much cheaper solution than having one welded in at the muffler shop...
Please, don't give your opinion if you don't have experience with them.

OK, installed the new cat system for the passenger side - and so far it works fantastically. No codes, power has been restored, all is good!
Bought it online at http://www.catalyticconverterwarehouse.com/ - the cheaper one of the two options they have. It runs about $350, whereas from the dealer it ran about $1k.
