Downpipe (for n/as)

Hi,
Is there any place that sells a pipe from the exhaust manifold to the main cat?
I would like to get rid of my precats.
thanks!
86 n/a

thanks but their downpipe requires the use of their presilencer as well

"It is not possible to use just the Racing Beat downpipe to replace only the catalytic converters"

Maybe I should buy a Bonez race pipe and weld a cat on there!

Just get the RB, then have someone outfit a pipe with flanges. It would be a straight shot and any exhaust shop can do it.

Get the Bonez Superflow, it replaces every cat on your car, or the RB downpipe and presilencer is good, its what I have.

i have the full racing RB exaust (the that claims like 60 hp?) and all i did was brought a cat, 10 inches of pip and 2 flanges, and welded them to make a custom cat. not as hard as you would think. but then again im just a noob

well obviously that's what i'd like to do but that's not legal at all, not to mention it wouldn't have as mellow of a sound. i live in va and theyre ******** about emissions. the question i have is does a presilencer act as a cat?

^ yes. i ran open headers for a week and then put on the RB downpipe and presilencer, it was a much deeper, quieter car.
