Default testpipe .com <thumbs down>

I guess if any of you guys with LS's want a test pipe your gonna have to call and talk to someone ...

I ordered, from there website, a 2.25 testpipe for 92-95 integra .. in the comments i put i had the LS b18b nonvtec and i needed NO O2 sensor hole

i even emailed them .. all the info on my car ...and NO o2 sensor hole.. and i was like ..if you have a resignated one ill take that over the str8 .. but ill take the str8 if thats all you have ...

took about 10 days ... box was beat to **** .. not there fault i guess ... open up the box... its the right size 2.25 str8 pipe ... with a phat *** O2 sensor hole chillin in it .. So these guys obviously cant follow written instructions ... if you want to save yourself a headache ... call them i guess ??? hopefully they wont **** that up

as for this one ?? i dont know if its even gonna work now .. cause the GSR and LS catz were 2 different sizes ... im gonna be pissed if i got to ship this back .. man i went through this same **** with Landspeed .. what a bunch of toolzzz

**** Testpipe.com I bought my testpipe from them too

I had one extra 02 sensor bung, I had to plug it with a sawed off 02 sensor. 2 weeks later it blew out, and I had a FAT *** exhaust leak. Sounded like **** and stunk to high heaven. I put my stock car back on, till I got that hole welded shut.

For those that are looking for a good company that sells test pipes, try performance exhaust out of new york. I bought a test pipe off them on ebay and everything was smooth sailing. They welded the o2 boss on the test pipe like I asked and respond to emails quickly. You can email them at performanceexhaust@yahoo.com for any questions. The guys are a quality business. Just talking from my experience with them

GSR testpipe would require the O2 sensor hole ... i guess they cant follow instructions for us LS users .... yes theres a bolt in the whole for the time being .... ill be adding a greddy air/fuel gauge .... sooo i guess i can actually use at the point ... just pisses me off .. i make specific requests on the orderform and email them .... and they still just ship me whatever the **** they wanted ...

Yeah until that one goes bad, the quality on carsound cats suck, I got mine installed at the same time as my hytech header, wouldnt you know, a week later the cat starts to rattle real bad and my performance goes to nill, I think it is the motor going bad and the cats heat shield rattling.

A month after that we go to put on my JG Edelbrock intake manifold and spot weld the heat shiel to stop the rattling, we drop the cat and look inside, holy poopy cocka, the honeycomb material has turned completely sideways and the cat is allowing ZERO exhaust flow. We shake the cat and realize that sucker has to come out, couple of minutes with a pry bar and I have solved the problem, but now I have a gutted cat which has proven a loss of midrange torque and horsepower for me (the large open chamber is bad for exhaust velocity) and my car stinks again.

My 2 cents, find a better quality cat (the Hytech unit looks awesome) and leave the testpipe for the track. I am going to talk to John about his new cats sometime this week.
