Trying to get rid of some flashpoint downpipes with high flo cats from milltek to replace with jhm’s oem piggies. If anyone knows anybody or has any ideas I’m in the chicagoland area. Thanks!
just gut the cats on the flashpoints
Try audizine or audiworld or euroaddiction.
Problem with selling them on this site is that everyone knows not to buy them lol.
Id LOVE to gut the flashpoints, the car would sound ridiculous but then Id be fully catless and seriously doubt I would pass emissions here in Chicago. Thanks saki for all your great info. Big help
how often do you need to get e-tested?
We have to get tested every 2 years here so i went catless for 2 years. If i cant get someone to “test” me with my DP’s on ill just do a swap in 2 years.
PM B6JOES4…he’s in Chicagoland (northeast of I believe) and can probably give you some insight into the testing requirements.
It should be noted that I went from OEM piggied downpipes to 2.5" catless, and to be honest it’s not a huuuge difference. Certainly a lot louder, but I raced a friend with the exact same modlist as me earlier this year (BORAVR6 when he had piggies, and I had 2.5" catless as the only difference) and it was maybe 1/2 a car difference on the quick 50-110 pull we did. I ran 13.21 @ 107.3 mph with piggies and 12.99 @ 107.8 with 2.5" catless…as you can see the MPH was nearly unchanged. The elapsed time was down 2 tenths, but most of that was JHM Launch Assist and my updated tune.
The gap between downpipes and piggies is greatly overstated when you’re all motor. If you go supercharger, you’ll DEFINITELY want to investigate bigger downpipes, but with a modest modlist? I wouldn’t bother really.
- Sell flashpoints
- Buy OEM piggies
- [li]Get JHM tune
how much $$$ ? I am interested
dude…didn’t you read anything?!
Lol, I am trying to buy these, to run these as my full catless set up and use my piggies for emissions every 2 years, because I still have the main cats. Since both are 2.25" and my FI bottles to 2.25" I can easily swap sets… if the price is negotioable, I wouldn’t mind owning 1 fully catless set (for a louder exhaust) and 1 piggie set for emissions… that’s all lol .
Sent you a e-mail, and a PM.
Yup, money is pending in Paypal. Looking foward to recieving your Downpipes
Aww man I am really bad guys. I MAJORLY apologize for being sooo bad at checking my mail. I actually gutted the cats and installed them on my B7. The car sounds like it should have from the start and it pulls like a train. Sorry again guys but they are no longer available.
