UT Factory 2005 Catalytic Convertor

Before I make a post and set a price on the classifieds section, I wanted to come gauge the forums general tech people.

I have a factory Catalytic Converter pipe I took off my 2005 RX8. It had less than 50,000 miles and I ran a Sohn's adapter with ideamitsu premix.

I was simply wondering if the factory pipe had any value to other owner's of an RX8 looking to go back to stock to pass emissions or anything.

Thanks for the info.

Would you happen to know how much they go for?
Mine has very few miles on it.
I see replacement pipes going for like $250 on ebay. I'm wondering if a true factory is worth more or not..

Thanks.

What would you do if store "A" was selling pop for $2 and store "B" was selling for $200?
The point is: see what others are selling for and make your price.

^^ well said, they are worth 100000 if someone pays that amount, if no one wants it, it's just junk.

but I would say it's about 200-400, as no one wants them really, you can find them easily, Plenty of supply, so prices are not that great.

think about it, I just bought a Rx-7 cat, there are much less Rx-7 than Rx-8, and I got a decent condition cat for 175 bux. + shipping
