2.5" or 3" short downpipe for cheap?!?

[eclipsegsx1736]

Im having a hell of a time finding a 2.5 inch or 3 inch short downpipe so I can still use a 2.5 inch or 3 inch hi flow cat. All the ones on ebay are cat-delete pipes, and the only short downpipes I can find are the RRE ones and the extreme motorsports ones, both of which are way too expensive. Theyre all 230 and up, and the good ebay downpipes are 150 or less, but theyre all cat-delete. Im planning on getting an evo III o2 as well, so thats why I wanted a RRE downpipe. Anything out there thats cheaper and still mandrel bent that supports a cat?

buy an eliminator and cut off the length that you need to still fit the cat in.

Thanks, but those are press-bent. Does anyone know if a press-bent 2.5 inch would be enough for an evo III at 19 psi?

Hvae it custom made at an exhaust shop. I don't know that much about it, but when I was researching, people told me you get what you want exactly(most of the time) and it is much less. This is an idea anyway.

theres no point in press bent, its just another restriction in your exhaust.

Take a look a bushur racing's downpipe. I have the 2.5 inch press bent and it works great. I went 12.9 on the 14b with it and a 2.5 inch pressbent cat-back. I currently have the evo III 16g and Evo III O2 housing. It works great and doesn't cost too much. MachV has them for $200.
