Looks like it replaces the cat altogether, and any one confirm this?

I wanti to repalce my stock dp with a high flow stainless dp. I was planing on running a converter after the down pipe.

Havn't tried it, but yes it does replace the cat. Look into the Megan Racing DP's on ebay (i have one and it's VERY high quality).

x2 The Megan DP is a nice quality piece and will bolt right on with no clearance issues to worry about. The Megan does NOT replace the cat BTW.

This still looks like it replaces the cat

Looks like it necks down at the end.

Megan pipes do not replace the cat. I have the 1G AWD 3" DP and it does not neck down at the end like the one listed. Maybe that is just the 2G FWD thing, I am not sure.

Who ever knows with ebay... It's the chance you take to save lots of cash. My friend just got a MBC that had a hole in the casting. Go for it... and good luck.

The MBC is supposed to have a bleeder hole.

I thought i was purchasing a Megan dp, but was instead shipped a Tsudo one. I didn't really care, it was $100 to my door, it eliminated the car and surprisingly was well put together. I had to do a very minor bit of shaving to get it to fit though, was having problems with it sitting flush with the o2 housing.

Thats a bit different though. A MBC can be detrimental to your engine if it's of low quality, which is why I wouldn't recommend buying one off ebay.

Piping is piping as long as it's not total crap material.

Yes that pipe necks down, but a quick trip to a local muffler shop would take care of that in no time for probably next to nothing.

Just to follow up if anyone cares about buying this part or one simular

Took about a week to get here. Its a nice part with good welds and fits perfect. The inlet isnt a full 2.5" as stated its more like 2 3/8". The piping afer the flex pipe is almost 3 1/4" and necks down to 3" and the end. I would recomend to anyone who has a simular hp goal as me. Not the highest flowing dp, but works well.

I have never trusted an ebay part. I ordered an FMIC from them and they sent me a setup for a honda.

XSpower from SSautochrome is the only way to go if your buying a FMIC kit.

That is the DP that is on my car. It fit perfect the first time, and it does replace the cat. For the $$ you cant beat it.
