CP-E Downpipe hardware- question.

jeremydgreat · 07-09-2011, 03:28 PM

Hey all. Super quick question. I was looking into downpipes and finally settled on the CP-E ones. It says it comes with all necessary mounting hardware. When I was looking at the AR Design downpipes, they seem to make a big deal about their mounting hardware:

Bomb Proof Exhaust Gasket Kit
Extreme Exhaust Hardware Kit

Is that marketing fluff? Does the CP-E Downpipe come with proper gaskets?

Any insight/experience would be appreciated!

While the AR hardware is incredibly nice... I think the hardware that comes with the CP-E should be more than sufficient. If you still have doubts, just order the AR hardware and use them with your CP-E pipes!
