I did not know that. Thanks. Would you also happen to know about the flex-pipe that is part of Solo's L99 cat as compared to JBAs cat that does not have this? Solo says that the L99 motor produces vibrations that require the flex pipe. However, I have read other folks on this site saying that they run the JBAs on their auto. I am just not sure which way to go.

they have been on my car problem free for over a year. Not trying to be ugly by any means, but you can do what you want. I'm here to tell you that they work just fine without the flex pipe tho. You don't see a flex pipe in my pic do you? Nope. Cuz it didn't need it. You see in my sig that I had an auto. I wouldn't spend the money on the solo's. just get the jba and cut the cylinder deactivate off. If you don't, like I said, it'll be a little louder. Worth every damn penny in my opinion.

Ii run the same JBA cats on my Auto (L99) and they are just fine without a flex pipe. Mine were a little snug getting in but they are good to go.

Thanks to you and Camarowguy! I appreciate the feedback. Decided not to get the Solo's.

Did you need the o2 extenders or did you tune them out

I tuned them out. But. I found out the reason I was getting the code was one of my front o2's was loose. As in about to fall out.
