I bought the car, and it didn’t have catalytic converters, and the active exhaust doesn’t work, over time I put cats back on the car but was told that the active exhaust flaps were deleted. How do I go about getting my active exhaust to work and what parts do I need to buy?

Yes, this car does have active exhaust, you will need the muffler system which has the electrical shutter valves and then reconnect the wiring. Here is the information you need in the diagrams below. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
