    prices seem reasonable, shipping i can see being a killer.

    very true, I found if you are buying more than one item then the shipping costs come down and it works out much cheeper, but if you want it 'NOW' (like I usually do) then the extra couple of dollars are worth spending. Having said that I will order the DP from the States, I want some strut braces too and the total savings really add up.

    Installed my Cp-e downpipe last week. Took me 6 hours all up. Hardest part for me was removing the heat shields. Ratchet spanners helped alot and it wasn't as hard to do as I anticipated just take your time. Also i found that if it's in your way remove it. I stuffed around trying to squeeze a heat shield out and eventually ended up removing a cover off the alternator. After that it came out no worries.

    Nice mate, have you noticed any performance improvements? with the Cp-e DP is there a cat option? I'm fairly sold on Corksport but if others are using this thread as research.

    Did you have access to a hoist or just on car stands? (lots o questions sorry mate)

    Tim

    The CP_e comes with a cat and two O2 sensor ports. It proved to be the single best performance addition one can buy at the price. I did not change the rest of the exhaust and it has a nice note and no drone. Economy is very good and certainly did not deteriorate. I installed mine in a carport with the car on stands. As noted previously, I removed everything that was in the way and leant the engine as far forward as it would go, by relieveing the rear and RH side engine mounts and supporting the engine on a stand too. Read my previous posts for more info.
