Downpipes known to clear TC on '05's
 

This has been posted about 5 or so times already, but do we have a confirmed list of DP's that have been installed on 2005's and/or MR's with no fitment issues. Maybe there is or can be a sticky put up on it. I know of Works, UR, RMR, HKS. Any others? Megan, Helix?

The DC Sports Downpipe fits like a glove and clears the tie bars with no spacers.

Helix ver2 fits MR.

RMR doesn't fit. It will clear the TC, but too close (rubbing) on the cross member.

Buschur Racing now has a special downpipe for the MR's. Just specify when you order. 3" just like the regular Evo downpipe.

I saw a guy with a 2005 MR using a RSR. It is bigger then the 3" DP.

Buschur Exhaust 3'
 

Guys/gals,


I had a Buschur 3' exhaust on my 2003 Evo VIII. I have recently installed it on my 2005 MR. There is no fitment issue with the exhaust as long as you use the spacers supplied for the Downpipe with the exhaust.

Megan Racing fits '05...my buddy just put his on the other day. So far, no odd noises or rubbing that I know of.

It's true, the lightest weight-highest flowing exhaust now fits the MR too. We finished up the downpipe changes that needed to be done a couple of weeks ago.

Our downpipe also fits the MR with the stock braces.

Just wondering how you can call yours the lightest-weight when the GReddy full titanium weighs only 9lbs. Are you referring to the whole turbo-back setup or just catback?

Obviously he meant the lightest weight of ss units. My left shoe weighs more than the titanium units.

Is the Helix version 2 Downpipe available to buy yet?

Yea the megan racing fit on my 05. The lip of the flex section does touch, but just barely.
