If its the primary cat at the header. It one whole peace with the header. Its not just a simple swap. Usually it take the header out and replace . Or go with ppe headers.

^^^^Install of the headers removes both primary cats. PPE supplies an o2 simulator that fools the ECU into thinking all is well with the primary cats, even though they are gone.
