Installation and Usage

Important Fitment Notice

Please send us your VIN or chassis number before ordering so we can help confirm your engine and fitment. Catless downpipes are intended for off-road and motorsport use only. Removing a catalytic converter from a road vehicle in New Zealand may breach emissions requirements and cause a WoF failure; the owner is responsible for compliance.
