hey guys! ive searched all on the site. But still a little confused on the jpipe. I see that XLR8 is the best choice.my car is lowered only 1.2 inches around. So if any of you have the XLR8 with your car only lowered that much, please let me know if everything works ok or not. (i see where everyone is saying do not go with XLR8 if "drastically" lowered)And also i cant seem to find the Jpipe (richie) does. Can someone please give me the link of it if it is the best choice because of the lowering.
Another ? i have is aboutthe test pipe. I believe we have three cat converters right? im wondering because im not sure where the secondary o2 sensors are. Its poured the past 3 days and my garage is occupied right this second. But when i look at the test pipe i dont see any holes for an o2 sensor.So do we not have one where the test pipe will go?? just dont want the CEL to come on. And one more thing..... where has everyone found the cheapest test pipe?
Thanks everyone

I run a test pipe in place of the 3rd cat, and I've never had any CEL's. I don't think anybody's had that issue with race pipes.

Correct, no O2 sensor in the 3rd cat.

The XLR8 one is the best in the sense of giving power. It has equal length pipes, and on a dyno has shown nearly a 30TQ increase at 3500-4500 RPM's. As far as being lowered, I don't think it should pose a problem. If you seriously do believe this is the case, the ATLP V2 addresses this issue.

As far as as the test/race pipe, we don't have a sensor on the 3rd cat so its a simple swap.

I wouldn't get the XLR8 j-pipe if you're lowered. Go with the ATLP V2.

As for the test pipe, get the RV6 pipe. All our test pipes are essentially the same, except that the ATLP has mounts for the stock heatshield.

Our pipe is fine for lowered cars. I wouldn't recommend it if you are slammed but if you are dropped less than 2" you should be fine. Any drop from 0.5"-1.75" should have no issue.

Also all the test pipes aren't made the same. It's possible they all have the same diameter but they aren't all the same. The material on the XLR8 Test pipe is T304 stainless and our pipe also has tabs for the heat shield.
