DC sports Downpipe

Anyone got this, i heard it deletes the cat too right??? does this throw up a cel and are the gains substantial? I searched and i found some poeple with it but no one ever says if it throws up a cel, ok it probably will throw up a cel how do you fix that?

Ive had mine on for a while and it hasnt thrown a CEL yet but I have the mechanical O2 fix done. Its an easy DIY that costs $3-4 and so far its worked for me. The write up is in the "How to" section.

I have an '04 but my buddy has an '05 RS and we both bought and installed our DC Sports dp's at the same time. Niether evo has had any issues w/ fitment.

I got both dp's from http://www.injectedperformance.com for $232 each, shipped. They had a special going for evom members so I dont know if you can still get this price.

Yes full 3 in pipe, fitment is excellent, workmanship is great, deletes cat - bolts right to catback, will throw CEL unless you have the mech. or elec. mod. fix. Look for prices from 210-250ish.

how does it bolt to cat-back? Does cat back have a flange that fits the stock cat becaues I was wondering about that. I plan on getting the DC sports DP and cat delete but IDK if it fits onto catback exhaust since catback is 3" and the stock cat is like what 2.75 or something, I have megan 3" SS catback idk if the DC dp/cat delete will mount to it though, could someone help me out and correct me if im wrong.
