Fabspeed is considered the best option on the market. We have been the exclusive importer, retailer, and distributor for HJS catalytic converters in North and South America for over 15 years. (You can find the PDF of our HJS distinction on our website.)

HJS catalytic converters are the same ones used by renowned builders like Pagani, Bugatti, and Corvette Race Teams such as Pratt-Miller. They are widely regarded as the gold standard of Catalytic Converters.

However, due to their fame and recognition, many other manufacturers claim to use HJS cores. Unfortunately, these are often misrepresented, black market, or Grey market cores, and are likely to cause a CEL. Always verify with HJS or us if the seller is legitimate. None of the other brands mentioned in this thread are legitimate in this case.

Also, we have numerous sets of C8 cats in stock and ready to ship for our Corvette Forum Members! Simply send us a PM and we can have them en route ASAP!


I hope this helps!

Cheap Chinese garbage.


Fab vs. Soul... I'd say Fab, but you're also paying an extra $1k for something that's very similar. Both include heat blankets and quality cores.

Nothing wrong with quality Chinese components built to spec, but 2M is the cheapest generic stuff they can find and weld together in their barn.

C8 is ≥69% North American, BTW.

Well fantastic! My window sticker shows 72% US/CAN (which isn't the entirety of N. Am.).

Another option would be the Corsa cats. Seems like people who have had them have had positive things to say. They are also substantially cheaper than some of the other options

Fab speed

Installed their cat deletes on the stingray and now the z06, everything well packaged, fits like oem. When I had questions they're quick to answer even after purchase

Over 2 years and no CEL with the Corsas on my 2021... (clearly not a Z06 though)

Not my first rodeo or high end car. Thanks for the passive aggressive comment though.

I'm not interested in cat deletes. I'm interested in sport cats.

Thanks for the generic thread. Pick one brand or the other. If you can afford a high end car then you can afford to overpay for cats and might as well buy Fabspeed.
