I've always been happy with the quality of DC's stuff, but their downpipe eliminates the cat altogether. Around here the fix-it ticket for running catless is more than a new turbo...by a lot.

It sounds great. Most of the sound characteristics of a turbo car's exhaust is the motor itself. Most 3" systems available for the Evo sound about the same. If you are familiar with one, the variation will be negligible. More importantly the system flows very well and performs as a straight through 3" system should.

what's up.....I have been runnin the DC manifold and downpipe and 80mm Thermal cat back for quite some time now, and have no negative feedback. Just space out your rear o2 with a fouler setup (I got mine at a local parts store for $5) and it in then makes the o2 read as if there is restriction because you are backing it off from the direct exhaust. No CEL and no problems. Make sure you get a reflash asap if you run this set up as I did. You will see you car have fuel/boost shut of sometimes and flames out the tailpipe. I'm sending my ECU back to Dynoflash this monday for a reflash. It is needed. Throttle response is such a huge difference. I will recommend this to anyone. The quality in the DC stuff is rediculous since AEM took over there company. Any other qeustions just pm me

here's a pic of my manifold, post #6

Hey Tom, I actually ordered from you guys and also got the hallman mbc. Torque freaks is going to do that install for me. Is it ok to drive around with a turbo back (my setup) without any kind of flash or tuning, i just dont want my car shooting out flames, or should i send my ecu to Al as soon as i can.
