Gen 3 Max w/ 225K on the odo.
The flex pipe needs replacing. A couple of local shops quoted me between $275-$325. Screw that, I'm just trying to keep this car alive!
I found an aftermarket pipe for about $60.00.

The instructions show the old pipe being cut out and the new one bolting to the cat and then being welded to the old Y-pipe.
Anyone ever do this on their own? I'd probably end up clamping the flex onto the Y since I don't have a welder at my disposal. I could probably have a local shop run a bead around it after I got the grunt work done. Trying to save a few bucks, here. Any tips would be appreciated.
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!
