ok what type of engine did you do any mods do you have already have done. montes that year has cat problems. i would first do a tune up replace all the fluids and wires and go from there. if it was a sputter or a surge it would be a spark or fule problems. but after you do all of that i would get a down pipe for it. it eleminatses the u bend and comes with a new cat as well. plus it is a good first mod to begine with
