Edit: it might of been amss, if so i've only heard bad things from them lol. all my searches here say to have a custom down pipe made. my bad lol Last edited by Bradcelica; Jul 26, 2003 9:33pm.

There is usually two versions of one downpipe that lets you choose either one...maybe eliminating the cat is illegal? I have no clue but I need to sleep.
