[A4] It finally broke today!

[Richard Andrews]

I was driving into work this morning at 5:30am, went to pass on the highway
and I was startled when
the catalytic converter seperated at the flange. I found a new cat online
for approx $200 for OE.
What other options do I have that are cost effective?

I have read you can weld the flange, is this really a long term fix?
I'd rather not patch it so it will break again.

Is a testpipe a good option now?

Anyone have an extra cat laying around they would let go without me having
to spend $$$?

Thanks!
