theres only one answer to all this madness...I'm so surprise know one knows of this.......
   



PUT AN AFTERMARKET CAT ON AND THAT SOLVES THE PROBLEM!NO JOKE...Only the recyclers pay big bucks to OEM, aftermarkets are trash....


 My buddy's customers gets their OEM cats stolen, comes in and installs a aftermarket and never happens again...An aftermarket does NOT last that long so by the time your next smog is due, chances are you'll need another new cat...But they won't steal your new aftermarket cat though..... Thats my suggestion to you all...... 

   Also in the SOUTH SAC area also...and its crazy...I use to see customers with toyotas come ineveryday for a new cat install.
