Any Catalytic Converters outside of Dealer?

My wife and I love the heck out of our 2002 9-5 Linear- 96,000 miles with only minor problems (ex. alternator at 65k).
The turbo catastrophically failed (Blew seals) about 50 mile from home. I thought I was going to cause a pile-up on the interstate with the smoke and all. I limped it for awhile to get closer to home for a tow by adding oil but I imagine the cat's cooked. I see Europarts has the turbo but no listing for he cat. Am I stuck with the Dealer price? Or can it be gotten for less elsewhere?
BTW, if your in the Chicago area- try Helmut and Vito's in Downers Grove for repairs. These guys are the best. Even the tow truck driver knew them.
Thanks in advance
