scrap yard prices on exhaust
just curious if anyone has ever sold a catalytic converter or dpf filter for scrap and what they brought for money. I just called a scrap yard and was told the cat was worth $85 and the dpf was worth $115

Those are pretty good. I searched a while back and best I found was $150 for both. Local yard had a few 6.4 exhaust systems laying around the other day, they said they gave a guy $50 for the whole exhaust all the way to the tips.

well i sold the cat and dpf to a local yard for $215 he said he would make $20 on it. he said the dodges one are worth a lot and he had found one in a pile of stuff someone brought in for just prepared scrap. me neighbor has a new dodge 6.7 and wants to make it louder i might have to tell him it might not cost much if he sold his stock exhaust.....
