Show original supplier description
The Invidia catalyzed downpipe is a high-performance exhaust upgrade constructed from durable SUS 304 stainless steel, designed for optimal flow and longevity. It features a fully cast stainless steel bellmouth with an ultra-smooth finish, contributing to enhanced performance. This downpipe measures 3 inches (76mm) in diameter, making it an excellent match for other 3-inch performance exhaust systems while still fitting the OEM/Factory system. It incorporates a 200-cell RACE metal catalytic converter, which balances reduced emissions with the high flow rates necessary for achieving significant power gains. It also retains the stock heat shield, simplifying the process and ensuring proper heat management.
