Breaking Stock Header Cat??
Aight so someone just told me they've heard of people taking the stock headers out, breaking the cat, and putting it back in and essentially becoming catless EL to go stage 2 on.
Anyone know if this actually works or how bad it actually is? |

You could make it work like many have done. If I really had to do it this way then I would take out the cat and a weld in a pipe to maintain a better flow.
Is it a preface lift or post 2016 car? The manifold is different in the facelifted car. ( Read Better ) |

And nah it's a 2013 gt86. I think I'll stay away from it because I know eventually I will have to sell the car and a gutted cat isn't going to look any good :3 |

If you can, buy a Gruppe-S.
I still have my OEM catback / header / shocks & wheels in my garage, never know when you may need them. I found over the decades, it's been a good idea to keep the OEM parts. (If possible). |
