Downpipe question

twisted2corpse · 06-30-2008, 10:44 PM

I was wondering is there any of a difference adding a downpipe to a catback or just using stock? thanks

idk if i get that? but a downpipe is a diff part man. the r18 exhaust mani is weird. but i think all it is the header pipe/downpipe connects to the catback. if im not mistakin the downpipe has a cat in it. so by replacing that yes it would help a decent amount

no this part fills the gap in between the cat/manifold to the catback.

If you are buying an exhaust, i will say to also oder the downpipe for the R18 because the stock one is to small and you will not see the full gains from your exhaust system

the downpipe is the missing link to your exhaust..
