Default need help deciding on which catalytic converter to get!

my 05 ram 1500 hemi has a check engine light on because of a bad catalytic converter. i was looking for a hi flow catalytic converter that will meet california's emmision standards while making my stock exhaust system a bit louder. any suggestions on which cats i should get? it would be better if its an easy installation without any welding involve.

Are you sure that you don't have a bad downstream O2 sensor? If you haven't already, save yourself some $ and replace them first... Just a thought.

As far as brands, doesn't California only allow replacement of the cats with OEM parts?
