Need Recommendations on a Bank 1 Rear Cat Converter Replacement

Hi Guys,

After noticing my Check Engine Light coming on, I took my 2006 TL (AT) into Acura only to find out that my rear, bank 1 cat needs to be replaced, however they quoted me $1100. I did some research and found that the rear bank 1 cat is bolt on, not weld, and also I can get it online for about $200. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best replacement for this cat and why I should spend $400+ on an OEM part from Acura vs. buying the $200 part onine??? Thanks!

Normally an OE cat will last a lot longer than a cheap replacement.

What was the code that caused the CEL to light?
