1986/1987 GRAND NATIONAL, T-TYPE, TURBO-T 3" STAINLESS STEEL DOWN PIPE

[~JM~]

THIS PART IS NOT AN EMISSIONS CONTROL DEFEAT DEVICE. THIS PART IS NOT A TEST PIPE. THIS PART DOES NOT REPLACE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER.

Down pipe has been installed & shows a few installation scratches. Down pipe fits well without interference. There was approximately 1/4" clearance between top of pipe & bottom of A/C-Heater heat shield. My Buick still has the original body bushings & HR motor mounts that raise the engine slightly. Down pipe has W/B O2 bung & oversized waste gate puck. I purchased this pipe from a Turbo Buick vendor a few years ago & was told it was a TA Performance pipe. It does not look like the current TA product.

$300.00

Ships from 86323. Package weighs 13 lbs & measures 46" x 10.5" x 10.5"

Thank you.

Wait, so am I going to get raided by the EPA and dragged away in cuffs if I install this?

Really nice piece, good luck with sale.

Nah...

But eBay won't allow it.

No kidding? They definitly don't care here. Our cars don't have to pass emissions, and parts like this aren't illegal for our cars anymore. Well, maybe in California. I don't know their laws.

No kidding?

Ebay deleted the listing after they determined it was a "EMISSIONS CONTROL DEFEAT DEVICE"

Fascinating. They deleted a post of mine selling an old Microsoft office despite posting a picture of the receipt from Microsoft. I even messaged them and offered to send the receipt without my name and address blacked out and they didn't care.

I re-wrote the listing as shown above & they deleted it the second time.
