i jus ordred a complete from headers back exhaust for my car, nothing special just replacement parts from Bosal, and im confused because my headers collect into this huge four bolt hole, and i looked in my engine bay and there seems to be some part between the headers and the downpipe. should i jus swap it for a different kind of headers or see if i can find that part too? i dont even kno what that part is?

actually the headers are made by Dorman/OE Solutions part#674556, thanks

could it be the primary catalytic converter? A pic would help

are there supposed to be two cats?

on california spec cars, and 96+ cars, yeah. but if you only have one, then it would be connected to your exhaust manifold (i'm pretty sure this is the primary and the other beneath the car, if there is one, is the secondary). can you show a pic of your exhaust?

thats the thing

yeah, that's the catalytic converter.

ya i had to go to the toyota dealership for some stuff anyways so i asked the guy there and he said it was prob a cat, i looked online and the cheapest i could find one of those was like $260, and i have every other piece for my exhaust except for that, but it dont look like its in tooooo bad a condition so i might just reuse it

if you passed your last smog check with flying colors, then go ahead and re-use it. if your numbers were kinda high, I would get a new one.
