    OBX 3" downpipe arrived today

    Paid my customs charge and still worked out at a good price.

    3" straight through, looks very good construction with its life time guaranty.

    Genuine Volvo headlamp protectors also arrived (p2 xenon) but it would mean opening the box.

    I'm only using it as a pattern for a jig, then me / Oblark will make one up with removable original cat, so no I'd like not to run a cat.

    I'm guessing I'll have to run a fooler on the rear lambda if no cat or have it mapped out.

    The thing I have noticed the Cheaper pipes don't seem to have so many bends on them,but they still fit well ? Strange.

    The cat diagnosis can be mapped out no problem.
