Ive had a fart can welded on muffler for the past 4 years or so and it finally rusted out, as well as about 1.5' of the piping leading up to it. Ive looked at every catback system in the parts database here on the site and even though most of them look like good setups, none of them have an active link to a site where i can buy one. I know that im not going to gain crazy horsepower or anything like that, i just want a nice setup without going to a muffler shop and having something made fabricated/welded together for me. Now that i have money to spend on my car again i want something nice.
It just pisses me off that i can spend 2 hours looking at badass exhausts with good reviews from fellow 6gcers but cant find one damn site where i can click and order any of them! any feedback would be great |

you will have to get it repiped most likely, which will run you around 100 at least, but who knows i could be wrong, but hey if it does let me know, but i do believe the st202 and the at200(our st) have a different underbody

Take you car to the muffler shop and tell them to make you a cat back... if you have money you can get full exhaust all the way with header replacement. I would recommed 2.5 inches with magnaflow muffler. If you have money for other mufflers you can buy them separately.
Buying a already built cat back will only cost you more... while providing same function that a cheaper system would -------------------- Captain Pessimist

I have a good feeling it will since the catalytic should be in the exact same location. The path and hangars should be the same, also when you compare st202 and st204 exhaust piping, they look very similar, but let us know for sure though when it is on, its been almost a week since you got it.

well is it a direct hook up? or did you have to cut it and weld it?
