To me a "downpipe" is associated with the Gen2 turbo not the Gen1 supercharger. Are you talking a catless header?

I blew out my cat. I have the scorpion exhaust. I'm told to buy a catless downpipe but you said get the catless header. Also told to buy the o2 sensor spacer. I'm confused what to do and what Brand to buy. Any suggestions are welcomed

Suggest you check out the Mod Section here in Gen1. Type in Header and you should pull up lots of info.

Gen1s do not have "downpipes" as there is no turbo involved.

The Megan Header is a very cost effective Catless option for a header.
