Of course we'd like to see some pictures and I don't see too much info on there.

 

[SpicyMSP]

both pics and info are on the first page of that post.

If they had a part that just replaced from the stock pipe with the second cat then I'd be in.

 

[SpicyMSP]

Yea, it replaces both cats.

This is why I am taking a welding class. I am sick of trying to frankenstien exhuasts

 

[PaulMP3]

the msp exhaust is the same as the mp3 locations?? for a stock mp3 it doesnt look like it would replace the 1st cat

 

[SpicyMSP]

Yes it is the same location.

 

[1sty]

The pipe you show spicy only begins after our first cat. The regualr protege 1st cat is where your turbo is.

 

[SpicyMSP]

I was under the impression that they were in the same location. Let me get back to you guys. still should fit though.

 

[1sty]

It will actualy bolt up to the output of out first cat. So its in no way a replacement pipe as our first cat is the worst restriction.

 

[SpicyMSP]

This Dp is from headers to the midpipe.

 

[1sty]

Thats what I am saying. On a non MSP its not form the exhuast manifold. Its form the outlet of the first cat.

 

[SpicyMSP]

Oh my bad, understood.

 

[PaulMP3]

i dont see how it would fit.

here is an example of our "stock location" down and mid pipes.

If what you are saying is true, than the wagner midpipe will work for msp users as well.

Mid pipe

down pipe

craig, i though the BEGI off road pipe goes from your turbo, all the way to your cat back. is this correct?

 

[PaulMP3]

Has this been test fitted on a mp3/Protege/P5

 

[1sty]

HEres the pic of out 1swt cat with the same 90 agle peice as you can see its on the cats outlet.

I wish, it just goes to the midpipe.

 

[SpicyMSP]
