Did someone ask for me
Well the CAT i got for Lee is 3 " CATCO one, they are made in U.S & complies with ADR37A, so you won't get into trouble with the EPA like some other one out there.

Well... the car will run without it... the poms have an obsession with removing them completely. Personally I like the fact that all my nasty carcenogenic engines fumes are being converted into house & garden carbon monoxide.

Gotta love Aussie politics - get utterly nailed to the wall for not running a cat, yet the country cant manage to sign the Kyoto Protocol...

Hehe, no, all cars come from the factory with a catalytic converter.
However if you're going all out on your exhaust I would advise upgrading to a high flow cat....any exhaust shop should be able to this easily.
After all it has been sitting down there for some 10 years.
