I currently have a stock exhaust with a downstream o2 out. I'm going to replace the exhaust and o2 sensor. I would love to get deeper tone with just a tad bit louder. Previous owner knocked cat out which is probly the cause of my o2 sensor failure. My questions are, Can you get a 3" cat and a 3" downpipe weld them up and go custom exhaust from there which I figure $100 - $150ish or less for custom piping and welding, plus Muffler, downpipe, and cat cost. I'm probly looking at $400 or less for a 3" exhaust or maybe even 2' 3/4" and everything to match?. This would repalce sensor and full exhaust from turbo back and with cat so no cel. Is this possible or do I have to run a stock 2.5" exhaust with at least 1 stock sized cat to no throw a cel for it. So this method over ordering one which would be best. Not to mention installation of ordered exhaust and o2.
