Ah I see, well there was no rattling or loss of power when it was on, I could get all the way up to 9k without any interruption. I didn't face any of the symptoms of a failing cat, I simply got the midpipe to eliminate the restriction.

Invoice sent Xero, and jms it was a simple replacement of the stock one, the only thing I had to get extra was an O2 sensor since the stocker didn't feel like coming out lol. I would very highly recommend the BHR midpipe, mine has no cat and is deep yet not too loud, plus no drone or rasp.

While it will be extremely difficult to get them, you may want to post some pictures looking at the catalytic elements through the O2 sensor hole. Mine looked fine from the converter inlet side. But when I pulled the O2 sensor and looked in there, both the front and rear elements had melted down (most likely due to a failed ignition coil). Mine also did not rattle. Given the mileage on yours, some more pictures might give prospective buyers more confidence they are getting a part that is still in good working condition.

If I could have removed the O2 sensor I would gladly do it, and I wouldn't have had to pay over $100 to order a new one lol. But I know what you're saying, and I would do it if I could.
