Review: DC sports downpipe w/ cat deleted

Hey guys,
Since I dont find any reviews for DC sports downpipe w/ cat deleted, this would be helpful for who is considering to buy one.

First, many ppl including me were wondering about whether it clears ACD or not. The answer is,,,, it DOES clear ACD. I was also able to use the 2 stock under brackets ( dont know what they are called).
Its O2 bung location is the same as o2 bung location on stock Cat.
I would say this is the best location for o2 bung.
I'm running my evo with Greddy Ti-C 3" catback, and sound is really deep as I expected.
I did not have time to take some pics while I was installing it. Sorry for who are looking forward pics.
Anyway, I guess it is a decend downpipe, and the most advantage is this is one straight pipe, and its weight is really light.
If you are gunna put a test pipe anyway, I would say a solid pipe is better than 2 pieces of pipes.
Thanks for a good price for Justin at STM!

I bought one of these about 3 years ago, ive got mixed feelings about this part, it works good theres no question about it. one piece means one less flange for exhaust leak. Its light as well. My only qualm with this part is ive gotta be smogged every 2 years in california. So I have to swap the stock downpipe and cat back in to get passed. Or spend extra money and it gets done. It is a good part, and couple extra washers in case you hear some metal on metal sound on the lower tie bars. I personally took mine off. But good part regardless.

If any part works with the OEM configuration then it will fit with any other part that works with the OEM configuration.

I wish it was that simple lol. I hear reviews that certain o2 housings and downpipes don't fit well together.
