WTT/WTS: Cusco heatwrapped Downpipe w/ JDM Kakimoto R exhaust

Hi All,

I'm selling this high quality full turboback exhaust system. Everything is in used but awesome condition, no rust, no dents, no scratches, very little discoloration and the downpipe was EXTREMELY well heatwrapped. This is a totally killer exhaust system, and the Kakimoto R looks VERY stock (no, its no the canister style unresonated loud one). The exhaust has TWO resonators just so you know. I'd like $700 for the whole thing, but I'd part with it for $200 for the Cusco DP and $500 for the exhaust. Lemme know, it comes off this Friday and then I'll post pics. I live in Sacramento, laters.

Also, I should mention that I'm willing to take trades, but I want a USDM type exhaust and I already have a USDM downpipe, that's the main reason why I'm selling my current one, so I have compatibility in the future for other reasons.

No boost creep ever! I really like this dp vs. bellmouth design. I've heard all the banter over bellmouth vs. div. wg. and I like the design of the div. wg. allot better and it has some mild performance benefits. BTW you can always cure boost creep with a ProTune on a Cobb AP.

The Downpipe is longer by 3 inches, making the Catback shorter. You could always cut the end of the Cusco pipe off and adapt it for USDM catbacks, and then just weld the Cusco flange back on.

I saw boost creep on my DWG DP, however I was not protuned (ran the stage 2 maps)

Hmmm, I misread then, guess its just a protune that fixes that problem.

Edit: I do also run an 05' WRX, no 2.5L in my car, so another reason for no boost creep. I did notice with the Stage 2 map that I got allot of boost flutter at high RPMs and never had consistent boost past 4k.

Everything is still for sale, but still on the car, I didn't have the time to get the new downpipe and exhaust installed today but I will take pics of it on the car.
