Another Down Pipe ?

Now that I have the GMS1 installed, looking into a downpipe. What are the hp numbers difference from catted to offroad. Not sure I want to have to swap back to stock every year for inspection. Is it even worth the catted for hp numbers?

I'm doing the same research. Based on my own research gains for a catless are around 15whp. I stand to be corrected. That's what Synapseturbo claimed.
Hahn claims that the catted is only 5% less power. At 15whp for the catless that would make the catted about 14whp.
If that's true, I might just go catted.

Then there's the ceramic guts and metal guts of the cat.
At the moment I'm leaning towards CIA's catted dp (metal internally) or Synapseturbo if I go catless. Hahn has a metal cat too I think, Synapse doesn't offer a catted that I found, and ZZP uses ceramic although I think they may offer metal if you request.

In my research the metal one's can better stand the heat and such.

FYI Even without a tune a catless DP is worth 10-15 over stock I have seen before and after dynoes to prove it.

get ZZP catless, they angles the o2 bung so you wont throw a code and will pass inspection. Same angle bung as hahn and CIA but ZZP is the cheapest

Downpipe

I picked up a dejon used with 3000 miles on it and no cat for 190. But i think dejon powerhouse has the best price so far.

I still don't understand why people keep making new downpipe threads...just find an old one and bump it with your question...there's like 1234214 downpipe threads already.
