I installed this one from Summit: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mpe-36438/overview/

If there's been any consolation in this ordeal, its that I got my car working well enough that it very nearly passed CA smog without a functioning catalytic converter!

The eagle eyed might notice that a 3-way cat doesn't make a huge difference in NOx as long as the EGR is working :whistle:
