I sent my stock piping to RV6 so they can work off of it to make this happen. I've also sent them a link to this thread so don't be surprised if they chime.

Nah...you are. You suggested it and it happened within 24hrs after talks. Thanks!

I'm personally requesting a piece for myself after it's made (Despite what the price will be). I'll be replacing my J's Racing piece.

**Update 8-8-16**

I may be getting the prototype piece to see how it fits sometime by the middle/end of this month. Will update when everything is a go. I won't be taking any pics until the piece is finished.

I don't know the specifics. Only what I've shared so no info as to pipe size.


As for a resonator, I doubt it. There isn't a resonator on your stock piece (That I am aware of). The resonator is on the B-pipe.

Here are some early spy photos. I will be installing it soon and be reporting back to RV6 anything I find. Nothing else to report at the moment.





My stock pipe is on top. The RV6 pipe is on the bottom.

Nope! Been driving for over a year with a J's Racing version that doesn't have the EGR pipe. No raspiness! Deep sound! And that's with an aftermarket B-pipe (J's Racing). Keep a resonator in place and don't have a tiny muffler (that don't muffle).

Update 9-23-16

I received the part yesterday.

As you can see, it has an EGR pipe, unlike the J's Racing piece I had installed. I do not have a check engine light after driving with it installed.







A couple of pics with it installed. It is attached to a J's Racing B-pipe.







There was zero fitment issues. The shop stated it just slid right on. REMEMBER, I'm am only testing fitment for this piece. It is not considered the final piece. This is the first step. It could very well be the final since there are no issues with it. That's all for now!

Gonna show my n00bness here, but doesn't deleting the CAT cause issues with emissions? Gladly my home state doesn't do emissions testing, and I'm really interested in this, but not if it's going to cause a hassle with Uncle Sam.

As I stated, this is only a prototype to test for fitment, etc....that I chose to share with the forum community. They said a catted version shouldn't be an issue but this is the first stage of testing for fitment. It's possible a catted version will be provided. Interested? Contact them and show them you are interested.

I won't be organizing a group buy myself though. I will be purchasing this despite what the interest is. I let them know this multiple times before sending them my stock unit. Good luck!
