well it seems like my flex pipe is damaged, cat is fine, and the only way to fix it is to replace both of them, which doesnt make sense since everything, including the flex pipe is working fine. is it possible to just fix the flex pipe?

ok so you can cut it off...the shop i went to said that i would have to replace both the flex pipe and the cat, because they were connected, even though the cat was fine...i was like...uh...do you think im stupid, im not replacing the cat if its not bad...

The steel ones -stock- are available at muffler shops, I went down and they showed me one. Too small for me, good for stock.
