    For $600 I would've hand made you one myself, with a bellmouth. Need a cat-back? $1200 :lol:

    note, this is a dwg with a race cat and a fake cat for yout rear o2.
    well worth your$$ imo.
    pretty trick is the w/g is uncatted.
    this guy makes good stuff. i bought my borla adapter pipe from him.

    i'd put his dp on par with one of god's.

    Thanks Discopope, another note- the high flow cat is using a metal substrate vs. ceramic. The metal flows better and lasts longer.

    Nice choice!

    I've had mine on now sice the beginning of the summer!

    Unless you have an accessport you'll need to get a cell fix. When I got mine Rich at Daddys was advertising that it would not throw a cell. Mine threw cell after cell. Rich offered to take it back no questions asked....even if I decided six months down the line! Awesome guy! Fantastic Service!

    I did the mechanical cell fix and have not had a single issue. $5.00 at Napa and a drill bit.

    Sounds purdy! :D

    Well the downpipe is on now and I upgraded to Cobb Stage 2 an hour after I got home. I ran it hard through the gears - no boost creep, seems a little louder exhaust noise, the power band is definitely smoother. Next step is Pro Tune when I can.

    I'll post some photos a little later.

    This is a side shot of the downpipe showing wastegate / cat bypass:

    This is the turbo end of the downpipe (small opening is for waste gas, large is exhaust):

    Stock downpipe turbo end:

    Here's a shot of the rear 02 sensor in the 3rd cat delete part of the pipe:

    Another note- this thing weighs half as much as the stock assembly and is stainless.

    Fitment was good. The flange was trimmed on the corner a bit, but that was very minor. The flanges are SS.
