    Requirements for a downpipe? First buy a turbocharger, intercoooler, engine management and associated piping and install it on your car. Then you can put a downpipe on.

    What you want for a standard everyday engine is a header.

    actually sir, mejo malabo talaga. tuners call the pipe from the turbo to the exhaust system a downpipe. mechanics and engineers call the pipe between the headers and the catalytic converter down pipe din.

    sometimes people just change the oem downpipe (refering to the second one above) into a larger one. but changing the downpipe doesnt do that much, sakal ka pa rin sa oem header and mufler. might as well get an aftermarket header and exhaust system rather than replacing a single piece that does little or nothing at all.

Downpipe...
