Update. I just placed my order with STM last night for their recirc'd downpipe. I'll update again when it comes time to pull the car out of storage

I'm still looking for something to mate up to my Red. I will pay what I have to for this to mate up where the factory style downpipe rests.

If someone reads this that can help please message me.

That's not what I'm looking for, I do my own work except for the fact I do not have a welder. Not interested in towing the car to and from an exhaust shop. All I need is an o2 housing almost exactly like FP's 2.5" o2 housing for the DSM.

You don't know anyone with a trailer?


And car would only need towed to the exhaust shop.

Nope. I would still need to tow it back home, everything would need to be inspected and boost leak tested before letting the car hit the road to make sure everything is 100%.

My request is special as even if I were to buy what STM or MAP offers I still wouldn't be able to drive my car.

You could have everything done and just drive the car to the exhaust shop with the downpipe off the car. It wouldn't hurt anything.

The whole car is spotless, not trying to have this thing blowing exhaust into the engine bay for a 25 mile trip one way. My undertray is basically permanently attached and would require my to run the car without a front bumper, also there would be nothing to support the back half of the exhaust. I have had bad luck with having the car towed in the past such as getting things scratched and scuffed.
