 QUOTE(jdmart @ Apr 22, 2007 - 5:06 PM) [snapback]549347[/snapback] whats the whole perpose of a down pipe? A part of the exhaust system running down from exhaust manifold to the exhaust pipe in an NA car or from turbocharger to the exhaust pipe in a turbocharged car.

Oxygen sensor on the top and EGT sensor for the main catalytic converter or wideband O2 sensor at the bottom.

You are probably talking about a catalytic converter. -------------------- _Gary
