????? on dp

[Twiztid_S13]

sorry to bother you guys .. but if i buy a greddy 3" dp .. will it eliminate the catallic converter????

[Rookie_ca18]

I dont think so... the one that is on my motor doesnt eliminate the cat, also the dp I have is a 3 bolt (triangle flange) but im sure they prolly sell others for t25's and stuff. Well actually you didnt say what kinda turbo you had. I suppose you could get an exhaust that eliminates the cat. Good luck.

Downpipe comes from turbo, hits the midpipe which the cat is part of, midpipe mates to catback.

Downpipe won't remove the cat. Or at true downpipe won't.

cool .. appreciate the info .. its the stock turbo for ca18det .. so now i need a testpipe also .. im just trying to get these parts ordered b4 my set gets here .. thanks again

You will also need a SR turbo extension (aka O2 housing) if you are using a CA O2 housing and SR downpipe. Hence why I am getting a custom 3" dp made;)

[Twiztid_S13]

i may just have to get one made too .. alot cheaper .. damn down pipe and test pipe and o2 housing .. thats gonna cost me some .... so what your saying is .. if i use a sr dp .. im gonna have to use a sr o2 housing

[rico05]

Yes. You can get one for under $100 on eBay. But when a shop can make you a DP for about $100, why mess with all that? When I go to the shop (in the next 2 weeks) to get mine made, I am thinking about getting a group buy set up to get a bunch made.

I am looking at that myself. I wonder if they have a package for everything BUT the cat back.

[Twiztid_S13]

THAT BITES!!! I just ordered almost of that for almost the same price from them.. i could of gotten more for that price .. thats harsh .. they posted that yesterday .. if theyd have done it a few days b4 i woulda bought it .. ouch .. ohhwell too late

[Rookie_ca18]

Damn that sucks...

I question the quality of the muffler myself.

You paid what amount...the buy it now or the starting bid? What all did you get?

[Twiztid_S13]

paid 98 shipped for dump pipe .. and 213 shipped for dp and testpipe set ... then i bought a megan 3 inch muffler 75 .. i still need to take it to a shop when im ready to get it installed to have some 3 inch piping ..

From other discussions I've heard that the "HKS style" 02 housings (the split pipe ones) don't fit very well around our left hand drive steering shafts without some gentle abuse with a hammer. I haven't seen it myself but I thought I'd mention it.
