You sure your dealership will swap out the stock cat, i can expect them to swap an exhaust but an emmision control part? If they do then you're very lucky

We've sold quite a few downpipes to dealerships across the country already.

The customers are in full understanding of the risks, conditions, etc. of how this may or may not affect warranty and emissions.

shabby · 02-07-2008, 07:54 PM

Im just suprised a dealership would remove the cat, thought it was a federal faux pas for a dealership to do it unless it failed. End users do it all the time, but a dealer? Whodathunkit, thats all.

There is only one dealership that has bought our GT Race dp. The rest of them have ordered downpipes with cats.

BTW guys, pictures added. Check post #1

Key features:

- RPi finish quality vs. other downpipes
- True 3" downpipe vs. 3" to stock size 2.5" flange from other manufacturers
- High quality T304 stainless w/ lifetime warranty
- Dyno and most of all race proven, not forum posting proven.

LMAO!!!!!! thats the best line yet!!!!! i wonder how long before one of those companys use that in there sales pitch?

BlueSkyRL · 02-07-2008, 09:59 PM

Eloy,

Two questions/assumptions for you. One, this is for the Redline and two, I have the Magnaflow 3 inch exhaust and would need to modify the flang on the downpipe, right?

No Engine codes...so this is a metal spun cat and not a ceramic type???

Thanks

Mike

No check engine lights, metal matrix core and yes, you would have to modify your magnaflow to have this fit. We've never tested the performance of the dp with a magnaflow exhaust though so I dont know how it will perform.

What youll need to do is have a shop cut your magnaflow exhaust and weld a 3" v-band racing flange on it, then use it to connect to the dp.

BlueSkyRL · 02-08-2008, 09:00 PM

Thanks Eloy! I now have it on my next things to buy list

Yes, they are very cool

I'm getting the down pipe with the cat so I'm assuming that is okay for the road?

RPIpower · 02-09-2008, 08:31 AM

Just a heads up. We made 35 downpipes this week and 20 are exported to Germany for the Opel GT. Some have been sold here in the US so we have 9 left.

You have a PM

Well I thought about it after reading Eloy's reply to my PM and my answer is in my signature block. I am going to be having Saturn of Tucson install the:
-RPi GT Series Exhaust
-RPi Intercooler Stage 2
-RPi Down Pipe
She will be running with allot more power after I get her back.

YellowSky · 02-10-2008, 05:11 PM

and one opel/ saturn in the US!!!!!

**Ahnuld** · 02-10-2008, 10:23 PM

RPI.. question...

The Sergeant's package of:
-RPi GT Series Exhaust
-RPi Intercooler Stage 2
-RPi Down Pipe

Seems like a great combination... I guess its the same as your $3800 package minus the tune.

Anyway... is there a package price on the above 3 components... or is it just order individually...

KS_Sky · 02-11-2008, 09:13 PM

Ahnuld I had the same question !! I'm not ready to do a tune yet but it would be nice to get all o
