Default Advice wanted on aftermarket cats for '98 2.8qms........

I trust my wrench (Metric Systems Cambridge MA) but they would use Audi cats @ $700/side + labor. Anyone have good / bad experience with Midas / Meineke / etc? TIA, Seth P.

Default I bought a couple of Magnaflow universal cats and midas welded them in for me..

I think the cats were less than $100 each.Welding was about $250.

About 9 months ago no problems so far.
