Thankyou looks like It might be time to buy out of country and ship it
There is very little advantage to catless vs high flow cat. Like 3 HP. Multiple videos and posts about it. I do understand catless is more affordable and I don’t want to spend money you may or may not have. Do the world and RV6 a favor and get a high flow cat.

Those tests are a little outdated and were done incorrectly. The tunes were the same when testing catted vs catless. The Bosch ECU being torque based would yield the same results if the tune is the same. The catless option has more headroom in terms of power and produces less heat compared to a high flow cat. How much more power? Not sure. Someone would have to test back to back + have custom tunes for both setups.

I'm looking at installing the catless downpipe and frontpipe soon, but will not be tuning for a few months. Will this cause any issues with the car? I know it will run a little rich but im new to the turbo 4 cyl platform.

No issues you will be fine other than the likely check engine light

Hello I'm looking for a 3"Downpipe for sale locally or shipped.

I've heard many say that catted is not much difference power wise as catless. But i beg to differ as a friend of mine had the PRL catted DP & switched to the RV6 catless DP and said he noticed the difference

Given the fact he has, AWE Touring exhaust w/Front pipe, PRL HVI, PRL intercooler & charge pipes with Flashpro.

I just want a catless DP.
