845 Down Pipe
Hey Guys,
I'm pretty new to the mod thing so half the stuff will probably sound wrong so work with me here. I've got as 2013 VT A/T, with a Magnaflow catback and a Turbosocks CAI. I recently purchased an 845 Catless downpipe, and tried to install it with a friend of mine who knows far more about cars myself. We got the stock cat off fine, only to find that we needed to also remove the elbow(?) from the cat to the turbo itself. This is where we found that the two bolts contained rust, but tried to get the nuts of anyway. Long story short, the bolt snapped clear off and disappeared. We didn't want to go along with the install because if the 2nd bolt came off, I'd be riding around with nothing until we got it resolved. I guess what I need to know is what size that bolt is so I can purchase another one. ANy help is highly appreciated!!! :eagerness::eagerness::eagerness:

its the NA, but i thought it would give a general area.
He is talking about the bolt that goes from the elbow to the turbo. Those are notorious for braking off. Thats why I bought a Pierce HFCDP. The extra couple HP was not worth the risk of the elbow bolts. lol
By the way welcome to the forums.Hey Guys,

Technically the Pierce Pipes are Test Pipes.Wow, didn't know that there was a DP that was that high up. I have Pierces Catless so that's why i was confused.
A Down pipe goes from Turbo to exhaust.
The dyno sheets that got posted showed a 2-3hp difference so not a huge deal, but to some it is.
