Post Where can I get no cat straight pipes for my 996TT??

Also, is there any straight pipe (cat or not) that uses stock tips??
I love my dual tips (X54) too much!!

msindi,

Got your message and I will try to give you a call when I get some time tomorrow. Definitely connect with wilber on this issue, he has a lot of experience with straight pipes on 996TT.

Like he says, it is not hard to get a straight pipe to weld on to your existing tips.

easy, find a good exhaust shop that does mandrel bending and have them make you a pipe. Ask around the Hot Rod guys if you know any of them, they may be able to help you find someone that makes headers, exhaust, etc.

If you just put straight pipe on the car you will have check eng lights!(and the car will run like ****)
You must know where to put your O2sencer than you wont have any check eng light.

Have them fab up some custom straight pipes and keep your cats, that way when the car needs to go in you can swap the cats back in so there's no warranty issue.
