Skunk2 cat back for P5
 
Hey everyone,

Skunk2 now has a cat back for the P5, it looks pretty sweet if I do say so myself. I have a custom exhaust, 2.25" piping from the header back, and a high flow cat. Sounds great, and I seem to have better throttle response. For looks though I would like the Skunk2.

Brand? How much did you spend? Is it mandrel or crushed? I can't find anyone that can do mandrel :( Too many questions, eh?

Does the Skunk2 cat back eliminate the secondary cat or does it go after the secondary cat?

after. it replaces or removes the resonator though.

Rishie just had the prototype fitted to his P5. Ask him about price and fitment.

There is a place here in Calgary (www.speedville.ca) that built the exhaust for me. The piping is all stainless steel mandrel bend, and I got it all done for $481.00 tax in. Thats in Canadian dollars of course. The muffler I already had, which is a rocketZ (looks like a 5Zigen fireball). Because of the mandrel bends that the guy had the muffler hangs down slightly instead of being closer to the body, but it still looks pretty good. In the future I will get a mandrel bend peice to for the back section that will fix the problem, but for the time being it is pretty good, especially for the price.
