does anyone want a straight pipe?

i ordered a cat replacement pipe for a 84-85 off of racing beats websight, but it smells too bad and is too damn loud. i paid about $110 for it, and used it for a week. I will sell it for $70/obo, it definetley made my car quite a bit quicker, i would guess an increase of around 10-15 hp, i could be wrong, but i could tell a moderate increase, anyway let me know

12a or 13b? Is it a direct bolt in replacement for the 3 cats? If it's for a 13 I'm interested.... Otherwise, it won't help me much

i got one of those for my '83 and i love it.

little more kick, louder (this is a good thing as far as im concerned), and less heat all around.

but i'll be damned if my exhaust doesn't REEK of hydrocarbons.

i don't think it will fit. they changed the exhaust system around in '84.

come to think of it, i have a pipe with hollowed out cats that'll go on an '84 or an '85. rx7passion gave it to me, if anyone wants it, i'll gladly "donate it", i'd just ask for reimbursement for shipping.

so if redrx's pipe is sold and you want one, i've got one - not the same things exactly, but it serves the same purpose.

The Donated poor mans straight pipe sounds really good to me! I am just trying to get my car working right again and one of my problems is a very questionable exhaust that is in all likely hood has cloged cats what do you think shipping to fargo ND would cost?
