so today i got my ses light scanned again i have missfire in cylinder four which i knew about.now i have cat efficiency codes for both cats and a maf sensor. fml i think its kinda weird that both cats went out at the same time. i know the maf and cats are linked but could it kill both? anyone know where to get cheap cats and maf?

Buy a universal cat from summit or jegs.

Mine were $68 apiece. No more bad smell and water out of the pipe again. O yeah, SES lights aren't on anymore. That and I built a custom 2 1/4" dual exhaust, sounds awesome with Cherry Bombs.

The universal cats are working fine on my Kon. The SES light went away the first time I fired it up after the install. Haven't gotten a light since and it's been about three weeks. I'm also noticing moisture from the tailpipes which means they are working properly.

There are in most places of PA, but cat inspection is visual. Ive never failed a sniffer test with the CAT punched. My Tahoe's is punched right now, as was every vehicle i ever owned and always passed. Just cant replace it with a straight pipe.
