Can anybody identify these downpipes?

jpawlak87 · 05-19-2021, 10:07 AM

I found a set of catless DP's on facebook for $100. the owner took them off a totaled car and doesn't have much info on them. Anybody have any ideas? Good Deal? [IMG]undefined[/IMG]

There are so many places making them....could be any of them. Like anything used, you are rolling the dice. For $100 they might be worth a try....

Luis561 · 05-19-2021, 11:27 AM

I would get them if I could get the owner to lower the price to around $80

I think if it were anything else I'd probably just buy new. I feel catless DP's are pretty straight forward though even if used. This would be the last item for my engine to be FBO and would hold me over until I'm ready to go single turbo.

They look well-used, so at least you know they fit! I say go for it!

I'd check them for signs of fitment issues (wear spots, dents) and check the threads on the O2 bungs. Other than that not much to go wrong, it's a steel tube. Hundred bucks isn't bad--1/3 of new cost so as long as they fit that's all that really matters.

flyin54 · 05-19-2021, 06:45 PM

They look used and previously installed, I don't think you should have any problems with the fitment if someone was using them

I would grab them

whyzee125 · 05-19-2021, 07:00 PM

Agreed with the above replies. If they're used, they must've fit. I'd say it's worth the small risk for that price

If I'm not mistaken the exhaust flange portion has a section that tapers down to 2.5" there so not true 3" dp's.. which is fine. But only a few options out there that do that, can't distinguish from there. Get them if you want, better than 1k AR dp's nowadays.

I haven't seen any that don't taper to 2.5 for the midpipe connection. You'd need a custom midsection for that

so in short, you dont think this will work without a different midsection

No, these look like they will work with the stock, factory midsection. I'm sure the seller will be able to confirm.
