7th Gen ('06-'07): New Converter Options?
I have noticed a telltale sulfur smell recently on my 07 SS, indicating the need for a new catalytic converter. I already have the Magnaflow catback and was looking at their converter/downpipe, but it is not cheap.
Are there any other choices when it comes to the LS4 converter?

Ha! Just answered my own question. Ordered the Magnaflow 24221 Converter/Downpipe for $250 delivered from Advance Auto...30% discount code is a bonus.
Also ordered a Bosch O2 Sensor...might as well replace that so everything is fresh
Hopefully I'll see a performance gain and drivability improvement as I think the converter has been restricting this engine since I bought the car last year. We'll see..I'll also ask Lew to retune the computer after the replacement.

Here is a side-by-side comparison of the stock downpipe and the Magnaflow downpipe. The u-bend in the stock downpipe is a serious kink in the system for sure...Got everything installed and took it for a drive. Sounds good (not any louder), seems to rev a bit easier, runs smooth and strong. Very easy to replace with the car on 4 jack stands.
