Marc PLEASE replace it ~ they are not all that expensive ~ here is the link to the one that I have been running for the past 5yrs & 62,000mis ( 2yrs8mos/26Kmis+H2OBxr & 2yrs4mos/36Kmis+EJ25 ) http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MPE-22918/ According to my EJ25s ECU it is working great. It is an "ExactFit" cat' & according to the folks @ MagnoFlow should out perform your OE cat'. Combined with S&S Headers, a TwisterMuffler & 235/75r15 rear tires it was making it possible for my 90Westys H2OBxr to get 20mpg while cruising along @ 70mph.
