#8759, "Who makes bolt on test pipes for us?"


          

I am checking with testpipes.com. Does anyone else know of a company? I would really like a 2.5 inch with a resonator. I do know a muffler shop can do it.....just want an easy bolt on.

Well nobody officially makes one for the 420A eclipse. I'm not entirely sure if we have the same cat as the GS-T, but if we do, you can order one of those.

2.5" steel flanges are 8 dollars from RRE, and you can find 2.5" steel pipes anywhere. Just got to pay someone the 5 bucks or so to weld it together.

Well as far as I know you'll have to buy one for a GST (from extreme, bushcur ect) and reweld one flange at the same angle as the downpipe flange. The length and flanges are the same just the flange at the downpipe is on a different angle than ours. I dont think anyone makes one for us. Whats with the resonator? You dont expect a test pipe to have one do you (otherwise its no longer a test pipe)?

http://www.testpipe.com Brad is making me a 2.5 inch test pipe to fit where the factory cat is. He is making it with 3 inch piping and 2.5 inch internal resonator. This is a flow through 2.5 inch. The flanges swivel to all it to fit a GS-T or GS/RS. I had my custom 2.25 inch catback exhaust with 2.5 inch flow through muffler made without putting in a resonator. The slight buzzing is annoying at high rpm or when the exhaust is still cold. This should solve both my problems.

Cost is $35 plus $10 to ship......hard to beat that. Later when I go stage II, I will upgrade to all 2.5 inch.
