Front Pipe Question

Just a few questions

What is the difference between Catless and a Test Pipe?

Will they fit on a Automatic?

Can someone Link or List a few that will fit or will not fit?

Thanks! Sorry for the noob questions.

No difference, just what they call them.

Most if not all fit AT I have a motiv "test pipe" on my car so I know those will fit for sure.

It's my understanding that a test pipe is just a plain piece of pipe, that can replace where a cat would go.

Both are the same, they both don't have a catalytic converter, it's literally a straight pipe replacing the stock front pipe. Go for the resonated front pipes if possible

Will they fit an auto?


You'd have to email or contact the manufacturer, I'm pretty sure the HKS dual resonated, invidia resonated, and berk high flow cat front pipes all fit, others like the nameless downpipe now have a version that fits the auto and manual cars.

Front Pipe Question

Non-resonated pipes are very raspy on cold start sequence. But sounds racecar
