Product Review: Shem's Garage 3" stainless steel downpipe

Ncturnal · 05-03-2005, 09:48 PM

Almost two years ago, I purchased a downpipe from Shem's Garage in San Diego, CA. I'm not sure if they are still available, but I have to say, it's a very impressive piece. I had to wait several months due to the back log of orders, but let me tell you, it was worth the wait! Perfect craftsmanship and quality equals one top-notch product, and the difference in power made me very happy about the purchase. If you happen to come accross one of these, it's definitely worth the buy.

Here are some pics.

If he wants to start making them again, I can loan him my Gen3, I'm sure the Gen3 boys would be all over it. Plus vented wastegate tube would be awesome

I got the downpipe with a screw-in type O2 sensor option....the O2 sensor is from a Tundra IIRC.
