I am looking for the one that will work best on my header and rob as little H.P. as possible and want a 2.5 in 2.25 out for best power according to a few posts I have seen.

I purchased a carsound high flow cat I think its made by Magnaflow on Ebay about 4yrs ago. I think it was maybe around 75$.
I passed emission's a couple times with it and its still holding up.
I cant really comment on the the one you are looking at though. But it looks kinda cool,different. Not that it matters.

Many ultra super high flow cats, particularly if they're cheap, have very little platinum, palladium and rhodium, so they don't perform well as catalysts, and don't last well. Many of them convert hydrocarbons okay but not nox. So you have to be careful. Magnaflows have very good flow characteristics but are real catalytic converters that will do the job for you when you have your emissions test.

uh... all I see is a lot of marketing crap: 'metal core' this vs 'ceramic core' that. Total BS.
I didn't see anything referencing paladium, rubidum or platinum, only 2 way or 3 way compliance.... oh and OBD II compliance. If you order from them ask about a California EO for a 95 Tacoma. If they can give you the exemption order for California you're just about golden anywhere in the USA for a 22RE or 3VZE.
