you will probably be ok using this exhaust. U will need a different downpipe though. If u plan on keeping ur car smog legal spend a little extra money and get a metal core catalytic convertor. The normal magnaflows like to blow out. they are cheap replacements over stock. Magnaflow has metal core ones now.

U dont want to weld the cat to ur exhaust or dp, u will probably want some flanges so u can drop the exhaust easier. I wouldnt see it costing more than $100 installed. If u dont buy the cat urself $200 installed is the going rate
