Default Catalytic Converter for my 03 Disco Advice!!!

Found a couple of Cats on Ebay for my 03 Discovery and thought I would run them by you guys to see #1 if anyone has had any luck with them? #2 What do you guys think about off name Cats for the Disco. And #3 should I go with the add on version or the whole y pipe? The links are as follows:

Call these guys, I bought one for my '93 RR and it was hundreds less than I could find anywhere else. Fit perfectly too.

I recently ordered a Magnaflow y-pipe and cats (part #MAG93689) from www.performancepeddler.com. It cost me around $391 and tht included free shipping.

Use the code bestoffer4 at checkout and the price drops to $391.

Should be here in a few days and I will let you know how the install goes.

We use this company at work when new converters can cost a fortune:

90% of the time we have tried a non-universal direct fit aftermarket cat, have had the check engine light back on within a few weeks. We now only use OEM converters from the dealer, or Brown's used.

thats the same specs as we use here, just magnaflow isn't readily available here, so we use the walker dynomax universals, I've personally installed 80 or 90 in the last 10 years and had no issue with ses lights due to flow or the converter, however keep in mind there is no smog testing in Atlantic Canada, and we only started on the low emission vehicle kick in the last 4 years. We also don't have sai system or air pumps. I'm not sure how that'll affect your south of the border rovers and other smogger cars and trucks.

I think that's the difference for us "south of the border" folk.
