Reason I am asking is that im getting a new downpipe made up from stainless and will be reusing my new standard cat with the ends modded and opened to 2.5". Has anyone else gone down this road, I alread have a 2 1/4 cat back system and have stage 2 so this bit is really the end of the breathing mods until an atp eliminator finds its way to my lap some time in the future.
