you answered your own question.. u ordered a CAT back so thats the exhausst FROM the CAT back. not from the DP back.. a downpipe will bolt up to your cat! youll need to get a tetst pipe or jsut weld a 3in pipe b/w the 2
 
well thats what i thot,but the guys who i ordered the catback from told me that it will elimiinate the cat,thats why i asked

Obviously you didn't read his question right. but to answer the question yes the megan downpipe eliminates the cat and will bolt straight up to the megan catback. You WONT need a testpipe because the megan dp is a cateliminator downpipe. you will LOVE the difference good luck :thumb:
 
I ordered a cat back exhaust (VRS) and well its from the CAT back.. so the guys might have mistaken it or jsut werent paying attention or your gettin a hook up and they are sending you a test pipe with it (which would be badass)

depends on how strict your emissions are?

If they don't look where you live, and you need the test "standards" (acceptable levels) I can dig up the numbers pretty easily so you'll know where you have to be. You can get your car pre-tested at various places to get the numbers.
There is also a giant thread about "emmisions in your area" which might help.
 
Also, if you fail the first time, they allow you to get retested for free for a certian period of time. (Go home and put the cat back on)
OK swear im done here hehe.
 
if they only have a visual test for your exhaust then take the heatshield off of your stock exhaust and have it welded onto your downpipe and it would pry pass just perfect. Our emissions here in oklahoma are nonexistent :rocks:
