Default The A.D.D Thread


I just bought a Blox 2.25" Testpipe it came in the mail today. I opened the box to find that it is a 3 peice unit WTF right? anyone gotten one of these before? It is like an accordian, what I mean is its an adjustable length testpipe and that honestly confuses the heck out of me. What do I do with this?

The Catalytic converter on our CR-V has gone bad and this was a cheap alternative to fixing the real problem

^ they are used to replace the cat. -- those of us that don't live in the woods (jk Evan) could have issues with passing DEQ.
