this should work

Made with brand new V2 precat deletes that had misaligned flanges. The pipes were cut and a stainless steel coupler was TIG welded in place to correct the problem. These will include all hardware and have same warranty as the normal V2 precat deletes.

link still doesnt work. but i know what ur talking about. we only have one cat. p2r makes a cat delete for our car. pm him.

thats for the 3rd gen tl engine where they have their manifold casted onto their head. so they have a cat after each head and then another cat at the end of the j pipe.

I was just asking if i should order that one which had misalligned flanges but was fixed and welded up. it is 300 for that one from RV6. The new one is listed at 999 which is too much i think and out of stock. Ill prob hold off and keep looking in the black market got till spring to find one.

what..? p2r test pipe?

go to powerrevracing.com message them and ask for that part and they will send you pictures of it. cause it's been made it's just not posed on their site for some reason

personally I would go with the XLR8 high flow cat with a 2.5inch inlet and outlet so u get the better flow and still have pretty good emissions, and ur car doesn't smell like rotten eggs... amen to that

ok, im not fully informed on this yet even thou ive been reading all the threads about it. I have the xlr8 high flow cat and comptech axle backs so far, what else do i need for a full exhaust upgrade. Just the y-pipe or is there more? Does the atlp y pipe or the rv6 v2 y pipe fit the cl.

thnx for info rajca.

listen to rajca. ive installed the precats on my friends 3rd gen tl. they do not fit on the cl. you need to get actual headers. the precats are the 3rd gens version of headers since they cant put headers on thier car. what everyone else is talking about is deleting the one cat on the cl with a test pipe. check the faq on info of what can and cant be put on the cl.

I already knew i needed headers was just confused about the other stuff. I tried clicking both links for Chod's faq but neither work for me.

I run the P2R test pipe with a spark plug defouler to ensure I dont get any fault codes...

It bolts right in place of the cat and it includes the O2 bung, however, i had to extend my wires to ensure the sensor would reach the bung.

Overall, a well made piece and you get the benfit of direct bolt-on as opposed to a shop charging the same, but hacking the crap out of your cat flanges.

Also, I dont really notice much of a smell. Maybe for a couple minutes but not too bad at all...

richie must pick and choose who he talks to then.
I've tried him here and his site a couple of times and never no response.
I went with the obx's
