^Funny you say that.. I made it out to TopSpeed today, open up the box and they are test pipes, NOT high flow cats. Their website listed them as "TIG Weld Bolt-On Cat" under the category "High Flow Cat"....

I picked them up anyway but don't plan on installing until I get to the bottom of this, if at all. I mentioned to Aaron that there would be a large amount of interest in HFC's at this price, and he was open to extending the deal I received to you guys, but since these are TP's... who knows.. Ill be on the phone with TopSpeed tomorrow morning trying to make sense of this.

I am extremely disappointed

you know when I first saw them with the shape they are and the price I was about to say "those are resonated test pipes" but I was like nah it wouldn't just say cats so I kept it to myself...should have said it because now I just sound like I'm lying lol

Well, ya get what ya pay for.......and sometimes less. I'd been pretty interested if they made HFCs for the NSX because I don't want to run test pipes.

Sorry guys. Shame on me.

I might go take a dump in front of their building in order to properly express my feelings towards the situation. Im going back out there today to see if this miscommunication can be used to my favor in the form of a deal on some pulleys or something..

I noticed in the pictures as well that it looked an awful lot like a resonated TP but thought a performance shop would know better, I was wrong. Oh well, sorry for the thread fail doods.

This sounds like a wholeheartedly dumb idea.

Just chalk it up as a misread and go on. High flow catalytic convertors for $100? You get what you pay for. If it's too good to be true, it probably is.
