Per the title. I purchased a set of junk Stainless cats for my 2+2, and They do not have the EGR port. I work with welders every day, and could get one on, but would love to know before hand what type of fitting etc, than maby I can prefab...versus ripping my exhaust apart to cut out w/e the fitting is. The Service manual was not 100% informative.

The cats will not have the egr "port". They are actually on the manifolds. The pipes that are connected to the cats have an AIV port. If you are just cutting the cats and replacing, you should have no issues or any extra things to attach.

OH MAN - Thanks for your imput. You correctly identified my issue. I do possess a 1991, and so it has an AIV setup....Looks cheaper to remove than to re-fab perfectly good pipes.

Thanks a bundle Nissanfreak12!
