Cat prices in CO have skyrocketed since the beginning of the year when CO began following CA's CARB restrictions-- a regular "EPA Approved" cat is no longer good enough.
The CARB cats? Tripled the price of the repair.
It cost about $2000 to have a new cat welded inline where the old one was-- and after checking several shops, that was a "reasonable" price.
Element's are going cheap in CO at the moment-- a lot of people are getting the cats cut out and are unwilling to put that kind of money into a 15 year (or older) car.
Sigh. The world we live in.
