AMS test pipe

I was wondering if anyone was using this on thier car? If so do youhave an AMS DP and cat-back. The reason I ask is I just saw on the AMS site that the test pipe can only be used w/ AMS DP and AMS cat-back.I however am not using that DP and cat-back. Thanks in advance for the help.

If it is specifically designed for their exhaust, you will have to go with someone elses. The flanges are probably specific to the AMS exhaust.

If your exhaust does not use a 3 bolt flange it will not work without modification.

ams test pipe is catback and downpipe specific

BTW, a no name 3 inch test pipe will perform EXACTLY like the name brand test pipe.

you could get a shop to weld 2 bolt flanges, but i suggest you just resell hoping for someone with an ams tbe who has a hfc.

^ +1, I use a AMS DP/TP, but modified my HKS 2 bolt flange to fit on. A exhaust shop can do it for about $35-50.

Hate it when that happens. You should be able to sell it easily and recover your loots.
