Cat Converter
 
My 7th gen accord's cat broke today. I knew it was rusted but didn't think it would go out so soon.. The whole cat is pretty much rusted out from end to end and making a horrific buzzing noise. It's like a bee from hell is constantly around me when I'm driving.. to put it at the least. The header and exhaust are completely new so no worries there.. but I can't seem to find a cat converter for a decent price anywhere. I looked on eBay and saw they only had test pipes. Any suggestions?

try some online auto parts stores. They aren't cheap

I'd go with Catco for an OEM type or Random Technologies for a performance type.

also, if you get a cheap one you run the risk of your check engine light coming on because of improper readings, then it will take out an O2 sensor ($80-$120). Do it right the first time and it won't give you as much of a headache.
