Heh, they said mine was straight through, no pieces I guess. What's gonna
make me mad is when I get a new one on (next Monday), my performance gets
worse. I asked the service dept., when they told me what it was, if I could
get an aftermarket Random or something and they said it'd void my warrantee.
So I'll be going from virtually straight pipe back to an OEM cat. :(

Any gurus out there want to tall me what a bad cat could do to fuel mapping
or timing in the computer. Please tell me when this gets fixed I'll have a
monster on my hands. :)
