I got one from thunder fabrications for about $180. It was 3" and It was a 1 piece dp and cat-replacement pipe. There customer service was very nice and the shipping was fast. Product was great too.

Check with a decent exhuast shop. It'll probably be cheaper to have one made.

first one is rip off

2nd one is 3"

3rd one is 2.5"

that's why it's different price.

the first thing you need to do is figure out what you want after it. the 3" will not bolt up to anything. the 2.5 might. or you might need the presilencer to bolt to the y pipe.

what is going after the downpipe? stock cat? you want a mid pipe? do you want to bolt to the stock cat back? buying a new cat back?

and no offence but with all your wiring questions. and they fact you are trying to put an turbo motor into an N/A. you will probably never get to the point of needed one....

Just get the racing beat full exhaust downpipe, its 3"(actually a litle bigger @ 80mm).

That way you can order the 3" steel flange from Racing Beat at the same time and have a exhaust shop weld something up to your downpipe.

What material is the downpipe? They use to be heavy gauge mild steel, but vagely recall reading thay are stainless now.
Thanks JET
