Downpipe and Test pipe

If it's from CP-E, then it'll be high qaulity and have great gains. The only down side is they are a little pricey, but it's worth it. My headers, engine mounts, and intake i have from them are by far the best you coul get for my current car (Mazda 6s)

Thats the first thing I noticed about their parts. The quality is hands down the best Ive ever seen from anybody.

If you look on youtube you can find their Evo X exhaust. Thats the sound I want. Mean growl with zero rice.

They also spend alot of time testing to make sure performance is top priority. Alot of their products have white papers that layout exactly how / why their product was designed the way it was. You just dont see that type of honesty, quality and dedication to development.

I know they are working on the rear exhaust and they have started on the intake. Hopefully we can get pics and vids soon.

elpoole, if you get a chance call them and see if you can stop by. If they aren't real busy you usually can, even if they are busy they try and make time for the customers. Plus, you might get a test fit deal on the parts.

Yes Ive been there, awesome place. Tons of high end machine shop equipment. Robotics, CNC machines, inhouse electronics fabrication. Fantastic guys to talk to. They're open minded and perofrmance driven.

Ill let you know about getting the test fit.

Knowing that cp-e is making parts for the Ralliart is pushing me more to go by one.

Ok, they said the DP would be about $210 and the test pipe would be the same. The dual CBE would run between $720 and $750. Thats what Im looking for. There also might be a single version as well.

That's a decent price for a stainless steel system.

I wouldn't be surprised if they offer a single version for it. Those prices are about right for cp-e.
