Found this on Ebay last night but I wasn't able to get a bid in on time and I don't have the dough for it right now anyway. Just curious, is the winner is on here? Could you give us some feedback once the the dp arrives and is installed?

i just installed mine on saturday! it definitely pulls harder, thats all i have to say lol. of course i'm running it directly off the DP until my PG test pipe comes in so it sounds amazingly loud lol and no one will race me!! i pulled up next to a dub, and he looked like he wanted to race, so i tapped my throttle and his eyes went so wide LOL. it feels a ton faster, and i can't wait to hook my catback up with the test pipe.

p.s. sorry for not doing a write up on the install, i had planned on it. but about 1 hour into the install i realized how big of a pain in the ass it was, and stopped taking pictures lol. the corksport directions are great though, color pictures for every step, and explained very well. the install just sucks, it was so bad. it took me 11 hours, i could cut it down to about 3 or 4 hours if i did it over again, and if i had another person help me!

please for the love of your soul, do this project with someone

and don't attempt to remove the 02 sensor with anything other than a real 02 socket w/ a cutout in the side of it. this took an hour to remove and was really testing my patients, it should have been like 5 minutes cuz it wasn't even tight once i bought the right tool lol

I've heard it can be a real pain because you have to wiggle the stocker out thru the tiny space between the subframe and the body of the car. Oh yeah, I learned my lesson about having the right O2 sensor socket back when my wife had a SUV. Sounds like the downpipe is a good improvement for the money. I doubt I'd be driving around without it connected to the rest of the exhaust system since my wife actually drives the MS6 more than me.

ya i wouldn't recommend running it off the downpipe, my brain is rattled loose from it lol. but my test pipe came in today, so i'm stoked. very good mod for the money though. and actually you wiggle the downpipe out the top throught the hood! you completely loosen the motor mounts and pull it through the top between the fire wall and the motor. lol its so hard to manipulate the motor and pull out the pipe by yourself too
