Bonez and Racingbeat

I plan on getting the Bonez Turboflo dp and replacement cat and an rb catback. Does anybody know if rb's catback bolts to the bonez cat? Also, is it equal length or will I need an intermediate piece to get everything together?

I e-mailed Racingbeat and they didn't really want to tell me anything and any site that sold Bonez never e-mailed back.

Just wondering if anybody liked Bonez parts and the overall quality of them. Thanks a bunch!

Did you have to do any welding or make up any custom pieces to piece it all together?

What I'm basically asking is

Does the Turboflo system leave the cat in the stock place, so the rb catback can use all the same rubber mounts.

The bonez stuff is made to connec to the stock cat-back, so if you buy the RB 2.5" cat-back for a stock application, it'll bolt up.

I'm not sure which one is the turboflow, but if installed correctly, the RB cat-back will be just okay.

Badda-bing.

just out of curiosity...why do people mix and match exhaust pieces so much? why not just get your whole exhaust from RB? Is it really that much more money?

Because some people like myself need a cat to have there car road legal and for instance the RevTII exaust from racingbeat has a precilencer and is not intended to have a cat and be a road legal exhaust,
So you would need to either make a 3in bonez cat fit or get the bonez superflow or turboflow whatever it is downpipe and cat to bolt up with the revTii cat-back to create a legal exaust as far as visual inspection goes. This would be my reason for mixing and matching brands anyway.
You seem to be a lucky one to be able to have "All emissions removed"

Amen to that. I enjoy having a road legal car with the ability to have an operating air pump if needed to.

Racingbeat doesn't offer that.

So what I'm guessing is Since the Turboflo is a direct replacement for the precats and cat, and the Racingbeat is a direct replacement for the catback, my exhaust system will work!!
