uh ohhhhh, that would put me pretty deep into this car in terms of money spent. Anyone have any experience using a universal cat on MBs? The one on PP is $700 I know decent high-flow ones only run 100-150 bucks. It does make sense though, I'll have to get it up on the ramps and take a look under there.

Edit: The PO did mention oil consumption as a problem with the car...I imagine the valve seals are worn, common issue. I didn't really think of the down-river effects of it though. Its beginning to add up, but I don't have the money for a $700 cat. I think I'll get a universal one and have a muffler shop weld it in.

Also side note: small victory in replacing my ignition lock cylinder, raised my spirits.
