Thread: 2-1 pipe

anyone know if someone sells these? I've got the headers, but I just need the pipe
I'm located in California by the way,
Also I think I'm getting the racelandus 2.5 cutout to go along with it.
thanks

are you talking about the downpipe? I think i have one sitting around in my garage, i'll have to check on it though. I'm not sure what condition its in, but i believe it is a OBX dp

I thought downpipe were only for turbo'd car's?
as of right now I have a DE with stock manifold, I have headers but I can't put them on until I get someto fabricated it or get a 2-1 pipe
thanks brother!

I believe it goes both ways (someone correct me if i'm wrong) but anyways, what kind of headers do you have? The downpipe I have should fit.

are you referring to downpipe = j-pipe? Many people interchange the two, they're the same. Only thing I can think would be a "2-1".... You need the piece that goes between the manifold and cat, right? Has the flex-pipe in it?

I have no idea I got them for free, but I'll post a picture tomorrow,



yeah that's the pipe I need, what's a Flex pipe?

Flex pipe is, well, flexible section of the pipe. If you have the stock header, you just need a stock j-pipe or downpipe or whatever you're gonna call it. I find it odd you'd be missing just that one piece, but either way, thats all you need.

A lot of people around here call the pipe you need "secondary" appropriate term as it's the secondary pipe of the complete header. J-pipe, down pipe(most commonly referred to on a turbo car), secondaries are all interchangeable terms really.

And the flex pipe is the weave type braiding on the end of the secondary, even on the stock exhaust system. It allows the exhaust to move separately from the engines vibrations and such.

well everything is stock, and the manifold is a different piece from the stock flex pipe, but when I tired putting the new headers on, holes didn't match up, the stock one is in a straight line, and the one that I need is a bit turned

if it's an saac measure the pipe diameter; as there are both 1.5" and 2" variants. The first goes to a 2" end while the latter goes to a 2.5" end.


Edit:
If it's an oem piece then I don't know
