Exhaust help

[96talontso]

I just ordered this - 95-98 EAGLE Talon TSI 2.0 AWD Muffler Exhaust System (115mm Tip, 75mm Piping) - HKS Hi-Power Exhaust Systems

and I'm wondering if i need to do anything to the cat to make it fit?

and also im considering this - A'PEXi N1 Downpipe (2G DSM AWD) 147-KM01 - Modern Automotive Performance

Would I have to do anything to the cat (Which i do plan on replacing with a test pipe over time) to make those fit?

If your going to delete the cat down the road save your self patched exhaust and just not put it on. Other wise your going to have a bunch of clamps if you go cheap or welds. Will give the car a cleaner look if you dont hack the exhaust pipes multiple times.

What size is the original piping, can i get a cheap cat to connect the original downpipe to the catback? are there adapters for that?

For that money, do yourself a favor and buy a full stainless system. In this case the name brand doesn't mean shit....there are full stainless systems on eBay for 1/3 the price. That HKS system's mild steel piping will rust through in 2-3 years max and you will have flushed $550 down the toilet.

If you were willing to shell out $500+ on an exhaust system, you should have looked to Thermal R&D. These guys build some of the best-fitting, longest-lasting, and best-sounding exhaust systems for our cars.

x2 Had a Thermal on my 2gb Talon and it was used in all four seasons w/ no rust in sight after driving w/ it for 2yrs. And to save a few bucks why not have a local shop/person make you a dp??

Well, thanks for the depression . Hopefully I can return it although shipping is a nightmare -.-

Is that the cheapest way to get a downpipe?

Also, I have tried to find Turbo-Back's, and have had an incredibly hard time... Links please?
