RB5DOCC

I have a MY99 RB5. Think i have found a Prodive back box, but want a centre section aswell.

I understand that the PPP came with an STi (Classic), resonated centre section. Is this the same as that on a P1?

How much, or where could i get one?

Just get a Magnex resonated centre. They pop up for sale every now and then.

P1 has no centre cat. Put a wanted ad up, im sure there are quite a few around.

Do the downpipe, that's where the money is

There must be loads about. The centre section you speak of is OE on every import classic (be it WRX or STI), and the P1.

Are the centre sections on the P1 and Sti's Stainless Steel?

nah, it'll be the same mild steel used on the downpipe/backbox.

isnt the tube running from the PPP backbox to the centre section mild steel also?

Now thats an interesting point! Does anyone know??

Dunno either but that's not the bit that fell off my car. The aforementioned resonated centre section rusted through at the flange.

RB5DOCC, to ditch the middle cat, get a Subaru or Magnex resonated centre - about £120 new. Difference might be that people have the Magnex in stock.

If you want an alternative solution though, I'd consider getting an open neck catless downpipe and retaining the cat in the middle section. If you want more after that, ditch the middle cat too and/or replace with a centre sports cat. H&S do one.
