CA WTB midpipe

I am currently looking to buy a midpipe with an O2 sensor place. Any brand is fine such as agency power.. ect.. Not looking to spend more than $150 and socal sells only. I prefer one with a resonator if anyone has it. Thank you =]

You could probably have one made at a local muffler shop for about that price. That's what I did, I took the guy a picture of the RB midpipe and brought him the flanges made by RB and picked out the reso I wanted and that was it.

I have a Mid pipe with O2 sensor and Magnaflow Cat and Resonator. Had to take off for warranty purposes.

I assume it can be spliced back just fine the connector has a small cut but doesn't get to the wires. Just noticed all this when i opened the box lemme know if your still interested.
