i got my aem on a site, don't remember which, for $100 shipped, i'm sure you can find one on ebay for about that price, brand new.

btw, let me know how much you spent on converting to EX header. I might do this later on, since i think my cat is going bad and i dont want to spend like $300-$500 to get some ugly 1 piece header/ cat converter. like you i need to have my car CA emissions legal, so DC sports and probably OEM cat for me

so far im just estimating but ranging from:

DC Header ~$350
OEM Cat ~$?
Flanges ~$10-30
Exhaust Fabrication ~$?

Man, I wonder if getting an OEM catalytic converter is even possible how would i even go upon asking for it too? at a dealer or what? Man, and i just found out i can't ship any aftermarket Cats to CA..****.!

A muffler shop should have a oem fitting catalytic converter, how much they want that's beyond my knowledge.

So to my understanding, I'm debating whether to get a Megan Header (which i can't find any help would be appreciated ebay/online website) or the DC Header.

I'm choosing the Megan Header since this is only a commute vehicle and later i plan on buying something to my likings.
