I Know its from Ebay but is this OK or is there a better site to find a down pipe? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dodge-Stealth-1991-1995-Front-Down-Pipe-888-139/360229861374

I know there is that 3SX but thats to expensive for me right now. Thanks guys

I assume this is for a non-turbo DOHC? if so then yes that one appears to be decent

and welcome to the site

Gaskets should come with it. If not, new OEM ones should work.

No cat will increase power, mileage and may make car a little louder :-):lol:

hmm alrighty, i thought i remember hearing that yeah it'd increase power and loudness but that due to back pressure losses it'd get a lil less gas mileage? but I have been wrong in the past lol

naa the gas millage difference between with and with out is minimal (and I feel better without)

with stock exhaust will just give it a little more tone

seat of the pants you won't even be able to tell a difference on the low end, but you will feel a difference on the top end
