I have a 2000 GSR 2-door.

Is there a test / straight pipe I can put on without any cutting or welding? (bolt on) I just want to do a test. Everything else is stock.

The pipe would need to be at least 17" long, right?

If you could provide a link to a cat that wold be AWESOME!

THANKS!!!

 

Theres alot of cheap direct bolt-on test pipes on ebay, be sure to look for one thats for a GSR and it should fit.

 

I appreciate the post..but that wasn't at all helpful.

A lot of people have bought straight pipes which were too short...many ended up having to get some welding done.

I'm looking for a straight bolt on...besides the Skunk2 test pipe which is a bit overpriced.

(Ebay was one of the first sites I went to..)

Unless the car is for racing, you should consider getting a high flow cat, which is legal, far less polluting, better smelling and functionally has the same effect on power as a cat.

 

 

Gagnar has it right. Everything else is stock? Then why in the world would you put a test pipe on? You just like to kill the environment? It's not going to make any power, it will make your car louder and overall make you a dumb ricer. On a stock setup you dont even need to invest in a "race cat" because once again, the stock cat is more the able to handle the 170hp that you make. Funny that OEM cars are now making 500hp+ with their cats and non "N1" style exhaust (ie being loud as they drive through my neighborhood at midnight) and yet people think they need 3" exhaust to make 150whp out of their Integra.

Wow..maybe you and Gagnar should re-read my first post. I simply want to do a TEST.

It's funny how people on here are quick to throw in their 2 cents without asking why people are inquiring about certain things.

To make a long story short...my car is not running...it may be due to a clogged cat...and I want to verify that using a test pipe, which is not something I'm planning on using for daily driving.

Secondly...I do not want to rev my car without the cat or straight pipe on...don't think the HOA will appreciate the ear deafening noise.

The car is completely stock...who in their right mind would want to use just a straight pipe?

 

a clogged cat will not cause your car not to run. but if you really want to test it out then i would purchase the OMNI test pipe. search for it

 

Don't flame me, I was just providing information. When you said you just wanted to 'do a test' I assumed you were just using internet shorthand and meant you wanted to 'run a test pipe.' It wasn't clear from your OP that you were trying to see if your cat was causing a clog. If that's your concern just take it off and run your header open. If it upsets you when people misunderstand you, try making yourself a little clearer.

 

Inquire? Nope, no plans of that over here. Rather then spend money on a test pipe to "test" with, why dont you just order a replacement cat. If it was the cat, then you're already a step ahead and if it wasnt you can always sell your old one and probably have less money in it overall then doing the test pipe idea.

Yes, the HOA might get a little pissy if you run open header....though I doubt one quick crank would cause you to much grief.
