Does anyone know where to get an aftermarket downpipe for my 2k ssei? Also, can I do it myself, or does someone with a cutting torch need to do it like an exhaust joint? Besides the pipe, are there any other accessories I'll need?

Thanx

OlBlueEyes had a 3" one made for his 98SSE and had one fabbed up for me too. He mentioned that they needed to cut part of the manifold (not sure on this) off so the DP could be welded onto the manifold

Not sure how long that weld would last at such a high stress point.

If i go for Magnaflow or Flowmaster this summer, I will definitely add a resonator. But where would it fit, what specifications do i need, and where do i find one? I've been researching for awhile to little avail.

Chat with Willwren. He added a very nice unit on his '93 SSEi. It really improved his exhaust note nicely.

Hey, I was wondering if any of you had any recomendations for a high flow cat for my car. I really don't know what I'm looking for...some ssize specs would be good so I get the right one. Thanks.

I would go with a 3" DP and a Carsound/Magnaflow, or a Random technology cat. with the Random tech the you get the 3' DP and cat all in one
