The catco cat should work fine. I just don't like the fact that there isn't a flange attached to it, but you can attach your old flange to the new cat. There is nothing better than a factory cat, because there is more precious metals in a factory cat than an aftermarket cat. The factory cat will probably last a lot longer than an aftermarket. But you'll pay for a factory unit.

Aggressive is a ATR dealer and they probably list a replacement 3-way catalyst with a flange
