exaust is confusing

i have a question, this car has a m2 downpipe and an m2 dual ss catback, now my question is does this mean teh precat is gone or is that where a midpipe would come in, also would this be a good exaust set up for moderate performance and would it be able to throw flames at all, im just kind of confused on if this car has a more or less stock type of exaust or something more

ok
the exhaust goes like this
TURBO--->downpipe---->catalytic converter----->catback
well tahts how yours goes, get a midpipe and u can prob toss some fired inbewtewen gears, but its a good setup, remember if u take out the cat u for sure will be in troulble if u the piggies look under ur car, id get a resonated midpipe cause it sorta looks like a cat, and man it gets loud witout that cat

Running a downpipe and catback will raise your boost levels above stock and lean the engine out. You should seriously consider managing your air/fuel ratio and/or boost levels or you risk completely destroying your motor.

I was going to suggest getting some fresh air to clear things up.

is wrong.

The first item in the exhaust after the rotor housing exhaust ports is the exhaust manifold to which the turbo assemble is attached. It is most important because it contains the turbo control valve.

It's not wrong. It just shows what is pertinent to the question being asked.

Precat > cat > cat back
or
Downpipe > midpipe/high flow cat > cat back
