the only surprise with the product was that it did not come with bolts
in the flanges like the oem cat that was removed had. but it wasn't a
big deal to get a set of bolts for the job and it argulably makes it
easier to install (no need to push things apart to position the new cat
between the down pipe and the catback). it appears that even the oem
replacement cats are like this given the picture of one on
finishlineperformance.com. regards,
