Lately a lot of our customers who have installed aftermarket cats have been failing as the test stations are getting more diligent about checking cats visually.
it is ILLEGAL to sell used cats in CA unless for scrap.
What city are you located in? I might be able to track some down for you, but not cheap.
Contrary to what Phil says, I have yet to find a junkyard that is willing to sell cats. If Phil knows of a specific JY, I suggest you find out.
We just changed out cats for a customer on his sport, each side was $1200 a piece.

What are the chances I don't need cats? I found a exhaust leak on the passenger side exhaust manifold,at the bottom flange. It looks like someone started backing out one of the two bolts and got seized up and stuck.
So my theory is, since it was leaking right before the 1st O2 sensor it's been reading lean, so more fuel is supplied and the rear sensors are reading rich, throwing a p0420 &p0430. Does it sound like I'm on to something?
I pulled off the exhaust manifold so I can remove the broken bolts from it and reinstall.
