W202 catalyst second hand or aftermarket?

[orcwrath]

About 3 months ago the cat went on my 1996 w202 c200. After being told that a new MB one would cost £1100 I tried a couple of aftermarket ones, a bosel and eec, but both sounded aweful and after 3 months with the bosel I have started to loose power again, so back to step 1.

Can anyone suggest an aftermarket cat that they have been happy with or should I go with a genuine second hand one from a scrapper?

Do an internet search for cats though. ECP tend to supply Walkers (not me ) or Bosal. Up here they do anyway.

You could have a freeflow stainless steel one made up for you at Longlife exhausts. Works out to be about half the price of a MB one.
