Huh? yea mean after the turbo? If so your probably talking about
a broken cat flange which you can have rewelded for about $100, or you could go to dealer and get new cat which will be $$

let me get this straight....
when i looked under the car, i saw this one part hanging down with two u-bolts on part of it... i pushed it back up kind of in place, and the engine sound muffled slightly.. i figured the cat got knocked loose, but the guy at firestone tires called it a "front pipe" which i've never heard of, and said it connected the header to the turbo..

The two U clamps are located at the end of it. It is more of a compression fitting which runs about $30 for the clamp. I still have it and would throw that in too.
