PLM Downpipe?

[abracadaniel_]

Has anyone ran this downpipe yet?

I’ve ran their catless dp on my 10th gen si and it was perfect

sold the car and took the dp off and was still great after 50k miles

curious if this would be fine o the fl5 and wanted to get others opinions on it before I pull the trigger

Manufactured at the lowest cost possible, quality and fitment are secondary concerns. Your FL5 deserves better. I'd recommend a nice used downpipe over new PLM any day.

I think they run a 200 CEL cat, so you're going to get a CEL as well.

Have you guys seen any of the upper heatshield boss loosening up once installed? I saw a youtube video that made a comment about the bolt constantly coming loose. I think it was in regards to when it was a PRL item, but if I'm not mistaken the TSP is the same, correct?

I'm not sure which downpipe you are asking about but I can say that I have never heard any comments regarding loose heat shield bolts coming loose. In regards to our downpipe, the general design is for the most part identical to PRL but the machining is no longer performed by PRL and we use a different hardware supplier.
