Are these downpipes too good to be true (ebay link)
I was looking to get a set of piggy pipes, but these seemed pretty great for the price ($211) http://cgi.ebay.com/97-02-AUDI-S4-B5...item2c5639dd97
What do you guys think? I know shipping would be at least another $50-75, but it still would be cheaper then piggies....

I've seen these before popping here and there on ebay. Stragely it is always different seller selling these probably b/c they don't exactly fit or work right, as almost any knock off chinese part.
I believe these are "pretend" cats of at least cats that will have a whole 0.0000000001g worth of chinese platinum in them that occurs naturally in their "SS for 5minutes" SS alloy ... regardless.
You will get CEL immediately since they surely don't have pre-cats and the bungs are in wrong location to avoid CEL without front cat's installed. Part of price you pay for VAST piggies is for re-welding rear O2 bungs to location behind main cats so that the CEL can be avoided.

it was a MAJOR pita. i havent had them welded back up yet, or put them back in, but it was a lot more work than i was expecting. and i used air tools. i ended up cutting them. was much easier than doing the non-cut method. took me about 5 hrs just to remove the d/ps. if/when you cut, use an engraver or something to scar the metal. marker will not stay
