I purchased the catless coated downpipe and the downpipe back exhaust. riss should have it to me in a week or 2. riss has a o2sim so you do not get a cel.

Cool cause those are the best but they also can be faulty. And the spacer is a hit or miss kind of thing. Also where is Exhaust Depot cause I am not driving anywhere to have someone install something when I can do it myself. Cause I don't like paying people to work on my car when I am handicapable

Exhaustdepot is in orlando. I bet they would do the install for free if you buy the turbo back exhaust from them.

I don't know to much about them though. Is it brand name stuff or do the bend pipes themselves.

Exhaust depot makes a nice cat back for 500 and they offer a very nice hand crafted downpipe that does not throw codes.

Ya I have been looking at their website. I kinda want to do up an intercooler at the same time. I will call them and talk to them direct. I just like the fact that they use the magnaflow cause I don't like the look. But what size piping are you using? I was think of going with 2.75" pipe so I have less restriction but not a blow out fart sound. I really didn't like the sound of the 3"

forge motorsports is next door to exhaust depot ,forge sells a mean
handfabricated intercooler made in the u.k. and i am sure hector can hook you up with a install.


all you need is 2.5 inch pipe .
