    Can you clarify what you mean by down pipe and test pipe? I just had my milltek exhaust put on about 500 miles ago and I was missing the pipe that has the flex joint. They replaced it with a OE pipe that connected the catback to my high flow cat.

    neither here nor there

    Test pipe goes where the stock cat goes, down pipe is the pipe that connects to the test pipe/cat

    Tektonics, milltek, and SSAC. My SSAC downpipe didn't fit. I have two of them but didn't bother trying to see if the other fit. The whole catback didn't fit test pipe to tailpipe. So I had no faith.

    Borla downpipes are listed as fitting both auto and manual

    That is what I have been seeing I have no problem finding the cat replacing test pipe but connecting the test pipe to the muffler system under the car with 2.5" is hard to find. I'll look at those companies and see what they have. If I have to modify a little that is fine I can probably weld something or modify on the car to make it fit, as long as it bolts up and doesn’t leak I’d be happy.

    Miltek has one. Took 3 seconds to Google it.
