Use stock cat from different m157?
2014 e63s has a p0420 code and everywhere I took it said the right cat needs to be replaced.

I found a set of used OEM down pipes from a 2012 e63 and a 2015 ML63. Both around $1k

I wanted cut off my cat and weld the replacement. Should be good right?

alternative is to pay $2k at dealer or buy a new one from Mercedes Akron for 1400 shipped and have it installed. Mercedes Akron sells is 32% cheaper than my local dealership.

I have heard that major emissions parts are covered under warranty UP TO 8 yrs/80K miles. Have you looked into that?

Feels like thered be no real gain from down pipes with cats. And I don’t want to smell fumes inside the car
