If the O2 looked like that coming out of the convertor, the catalyst inside is coming apart, hitting the 02. You need to replace the convertor so the same doesn't happen to the new 02.

It's not going to matter which one looks stronger, both will be damaged by this.

The 1000 million $$$$ question is when are you replacing the convertor?

Damn, Swt, that 02 is F*cked. Yup, your gonna need a convertor or a test pipe if you don't have to worry about emmisions testing.

BTW, The drifting golf carts is hillarious. I may or may not have participated in similar antics. I LMAO when I saw that.
