SW Down pipes

[ZSHO]

A while back ordered a set of stage 3 dpipes,had to pay extra $$ for install because the bung for front 02 sensor was on the wrong side,so he had to modify it,anyone have issues with the ppe catted version,or is direct fit like the fctory ones for 02 placement,thank you all.

Is "stage 3" the manufacturer? 

As Storm said... no problems with the PPE downpipe... The O2 sensor bung on them is exactly in OEM position

I'm sure as my car was used by Paul at PPE shop for final fitment testing for SHO and MKS of the PPE DPs.... They only have "downpipes" ... catted, non-catted, or either of those ceramic coated... mine fit perfectly as bolt on... I watched them adjust the jig for manufacture.

Missed that one BigMac  , Stage 3  .....  is a reseller ; the ones they have are Stainless Works .

Ahhh.... I missed it too... since the thread was called PPE Downpipes... let myself be led astray

Glad it's made clear now so folks can check that fitment out... may not be as inexpensive as it looks up front

Hmm, my SW downpipes bolted right on. Easy peasy

Appreciate all the help and knowledge of all members in this forum,learned a lot here so far,you get what you pay for,since install of stage 3 motorsports,stainless works etc downpipes,car not running properly,throwing codes due to the cheap cats,po420,car now wont pass inspection,spoke to mike and paul and ordered the ppe catted pipes and from all the positive feedback from all members,just upsets you a new car having issues after sh**works downpipes install.

Well I cant speak about the cats cause I have none... but ive even heard of LMS' dp's throwing 02 codes cause of the cats.
LMS dp's are made by ARH.
I wouldnt consider SW or ARH to be cheap at all. Both are 304 stainless and high quality made in usa.

I was/am impressed with my DPs and they were super easy to install and 02 sensors went back in just fine.

To the other member with the SW pipes,i have the catted version dps from SW,maybe the noncatted version the bungs for 02s are alighned better,dont get me wrong they look good but after a week,had code po420,430,due to low quality cats.
