Cool Cats, Cats, Cats...
Yo, I got an EA2 CFI (1990) with a 2.5" exhaust and a single muffler. Did these cars have a catalytic converter out of the factory? If so I'm gonna need one for WOF.

go to a wreckers and grab a seccond handy from an EL or AU, they bolt straight in, and would be much better than using one from a older age'd EA - EB

Sweet as! Thanx Dellboy! Probably get one though. An AU one should do the trick nicely?

Thumbs up. Over the long term, exposure to the exhaust emissions of catless cars can cause cancer among other things. Justice served. :P
