I found a 5% off coupon for Magnaflow Catalytic converters at cwik.com (CWIK5). they have free shipping, no sales tax and at the lowest allowed prices already. Cats only.

^ yea so therefore I need a 2.25in into 2.5in adapter to hook up the muffler right ? I think Im thinking of it right but idk never done it before. Unless the muffler is a 2.25in on one side and 2.5in on the other but I dont think it like that is it ?

anyway I was looking at this adapter I think this would work,

Damn Im confusing the **** out of myself lol I guess Il see what I need once the magnaflow exhaust comes in.

Dont worry Il make sure to get a v-tec sticker hahaha I heard it makes you go faster lolz.

Muffler should be 2.5 in and out. You should only need one adapter to bring it up ti 2.5 and you'll be good. Just wait til it gets there to buy the adapter, so you know for certain what you need.

I know for a fact it's 2.5" into the cat because I did something I shouldn't have done with a flowmaster there.

My stock downpipe was 2.25" I can tell you for a fact that my custom 2.5" downpipe is much bigger.
