Default need a new Catalytic Converter..

and i was wondering if a universal is just as good as an OEM one? i really dont have $200 for a OEM one and i was looking at a Magnaflow one, anyone put a universal one on their blazer and is it good?

the "direct fit" one will likely save you some labor on the install
If its a universal listed for your application it should be OK

Make sure you have the room to install the universal
I have seen some applications where there is a bend so close to the convertor that it really doesn't leave any room for clamping
