Anyone have one of these? They are a real nice looking piece, might be a good alternative to the other 3" cast ones on the market.

Never herd of anyone running them. Seems like a quality product though.

Looks nice, and the price is pretty good. You should give it a shot and let us know how it works.

Looks like a good option for a 3", it even retains the bracket that connects to the block. I wonder what DP will match well with it?

^^^^^^^^^^^^

You need a custom downpipe that uses a standard 2 bolt 3" flange or mod your existing one, it will not work with any downpipe that uses the stock or stock style O2 housing, I.E. Invidia, Titek, Megan, JMF, ETC!

MAP can get them BTW and provide a DP solution, contact them if your interested, I contacted them about this exact O2 housing a few months back, and decided that their full 3" O2/DP combo with the V-Band disconnect was the best thing out, just for ease of removal for contant turbo swaps, and one less area for an exhaust leak

Good eye, I never noticed that it didn't retain the stock donut gasket type flange. I see now that the WORKS has the donut flange, but even if you had to get a different downpipe and sell your old downpipe, this would still seem to be a better option that paying ~$470 or whatever the WORKS cost.

One of my friends works with the guy that makes this piece, I'll bring this to his attention.

Looks good, except like already mentioned, it looks like it can only work with their DP, which I dont think it released yet.
