inexpensive dp and mp

I am looking for the company that has VERY inexpensive dp and mps. The reason I need to find it is because they also sell solid diff mounts and motor mounts that I need.

Does anyone remember the web address of this company or the name. Thanks.

I'm thinking that he doesn't need that. He's asking for the company name as he needs the mounts.

I don't think you can get much cheaper than than this:

Not sure if that is the company that you are looking for but mp & dp combo for just over $150 shipped, is cheap!!!

Inexpensive is a relative term.

Your best bet would be to look around for an inexpensive used dp and midpipe from a reputable company.

Some people have had fitment problems with the cheep dp/mp combo's on ebay.

It wouldn't fit on my TO4S exhaust manifold. Sorry. Good price though.

You are correct.

It is relative to how much you want to spend for the same product and same quality. In this case the old rule of thumb is out the window thus, in my view, becomes relative.

Check this out, I found it.

The thread it was in. The owner of the company responds on the first page.

i have the Ebay pipes and they work great! They are pretty damn good as fars as quality, and mine fitted perfectly. Besides why pay more money for the same god damn 3" of stainless steal? Its not like there are cats in there that we have to worry about. A pipe is a pipe, if it fits and its stainless steal who cares. I got my DP/MP combo for 100 bucks. cant beat that

If you use them as a set, it should work OK. However, many people have fitment problems at the turbo manifold. Sometimes not all the bolts/studs fit.

Also, people have reported that if you separate the set and try to use the downpipe with the stock cat it will not mount correctly to the cat. Slightly different angles.

There has been more than enough posts of people spending a day grinding the dp to make it fit...

Yes i've heard some combos won't mount to the stock main cat making it a must to use both the mid and the down pipes...I have a mild steel pipe for sale since i'm getting a stainless set if anyone is interested cheap!
