So when i bought my evo i found a 3" exhaust from the DP back, but its obviously been custom made.

What i notice about it thats bothering me is that its not manderal bent...actually it doesnt look really pretty at all.

Still its 3" strait back, and i was wondering if its really taking away much power or should i go ahead and pay $600 for a test pipe and catback? (i already have the ultimate racing DP)

 

If you have to do an inspection the test pipe will have to be removed and the cat put back. I would leave the exhaust you currently have. Unless you want something that looks pretty.

 

It depends on how far the piping is being reduced in the bends. You can find cheap mandrel bent cat-backs in the vendor group buy section usually on a daily basis.

 

i have had the ebay exhaust for i think about 2 years now with no issues. its full 3inch no resonators. i had to add a couple of washers to the lower sway bar for it to fit but it was no biggie.. i paid 250 now is only 209!

Ebay exhaust do not fit right on 05 and up. They rub on the ACD pretty bad. Two of my friends had the exact same problem.

 

yea^ i have an 8 it and does seem on mine and from what i have read that the cheap exhausts are mostly all perfectly fine on the 8's but the 9 they have issues with acd clearance.

8's ftw

 

If you buy an ebay tbe.. you get what u pay for. enough said
