    your best to get one made locally, the ebay ones are all lhd 99% of the time.

    one made up would cost you approx $300. hi flow cat *is NOT* needed fyi as well.

    3" is best option imo or 2.75
    What’s behind you doesn’t matter..

    RHD cars sometimes have fitment issues due to the brake booster and steering column, hence LHD and RHD downpipes.

    Downpipe is probably the best or most effective mod you can do to your car in hunting for more kw/torque, coupled with a 3" cat maybe.

    Best gain/dollar after the chip.
