    Default VE pacemakers bolt up to the stock cat?

    Hi

    long time reader first time poster

    do a set of pacers bolt right up to the stock cats or do you need to get some welding and modding done?

    Thumbs up

    If you get the interference one the is some welding involved, and it is a lot cheaper than buying new cats.
    The O2 sensors are in their original position and no tune is required.
    You have to take the top off the cat to the same size of the diameter of the new headers and weld the cat onto the header.
    To get it done in an exhaust place would cost approx 900 to 1200 or there abouts , I got mine done just over 12 months in SA and it cost 950 at AAA Exhaust in Richmond.
    It took about 4 hours to complete and I thought it was worth it instead of me crawling under the car, who knows I may still be underneath the car fitting them.

    The PH5377 will bolt on and leave the cats in their factory position. But as said, they do need cutting and welding.

    Do you already have them? If not, I can get you a pretty good price on them.

    Yes, the PH5080's need welding when fitting. The same as the PH5377.
