Thanks Greg!
I got my 2.5" alumized, dual tipped, 18" resonator and cat promptly after ordering. Finally got it on on Saturday, and man what a difference. The car actually idles smoothly now, and doesnt feel like it's going to explode at 80mph! (previous exhaust was rusted through big time).
I DID have to wrestle with the old bolts for hours as they were rusted--even heated them up till they cherried-- ended up chopping through them and the old gasket near the Cat with a dremel! Also had to buy a few new bolts (the only ones included were with the new Cat).
One small issue I ran into, the piece of pipe coming out of the resonator that bolts to the muffler had mounting holes that were larger than the heads of the bolts! I had to use washers to secure them. Otherwise, I'm happy as can be! Nice and quiet at idle, and great sound at 3k-4k rpm.
