| Just a heads up, the 3 inch hogan downpipe made for 97+ bonnevilles is compatible with all 97+ rivieras, it's a 4 bolt flange, so if you're like me and don't have access to welding talent, it's true bolt on. I emailed them about it, and just got a response back today.

| yeah, I wanna go with that one, but i'm still debating if it's worth it to spend the cash on a dp, or just save it for headers | |

| Here's my feelings on our exhaust: for the money and install time, a 3" down pipe is a much better improvement than headers. You get 10 hp with that down pipe vs. maybe 15 hp with headers. It's 1/6 the cost, and twice as easy to install. Plus, you won't have the noise/harshness that headers have. Unless you want the absolute most power possible, and you plan on modding quite a bit more, I'd try out the pipe. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| Yes, it's either/or. SLP headers come with down-pipe built in, called a flex-pipe. Chances are other header varieties would not mate up with any of the available down pipes. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| The built in SLP downpipe isn't as big as the Hogan pipe?
Crikey, if it's a 5 hp difference between headers and the DP, and you can't use both, why not get a DP and, uh, what are they called - togs? The smoothed out manifolds? | |

| With more serious mods, like a cam, rockers, or very small SC pulleys... headers should outflow any downpipe/PEM combo. SLPs are advertised giving "up to 25hp gain" But if you only have a few things done to the engine, they are a bit overkill, imo. They really work when you're trying to flow a lot of air. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| From what I've read in other threads the DP's don't fit real well, something about the gasket doesn't match up right? Is one DP a better fit than another?? I need to get educated about this stuff... | |

| How does that dp manage to fit on 2 different generations of Bonnevilles? The dyno car wasn't stock...It looks like it has a 3.4" w/supporting mods before the dp so I imagine it would benefit the modded car more than a stock car. | |

I would make sure to ask them first before you order. I bet they have a restocking fee or something to go along with it. | |

| The riv and bonneville have the same DP p/n. The slp knock offs are only 40$ more than that DP, but you don't have the convenience of being a bolt in. | |

Why not include '96s? b/c the 96's do not have bolt up flanges. ours is welded to the cat and has a different bolt-up at the collector. the zzp DP will work on the 96's but it must be welded in place and the upper gasket is a dounut type not a flat gasket. i have very little leaking with my zzp dp, and i reused the stock gasket even tho it is a little bit small. i also used 3" pipe all the way to the resonator also the holes on the zzp/aftermarket dp's do not directly line up with the 96 holes so they must be drilled out a little bit. _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.

You think the steel flange won't hold up for an acceptable length of time? Or is it the 409 SS you're doubting? I'm not familiar with the specs on 409SS, we deal with 304 and 316 where I work. | |

| If read the 409 develops a surface rust, but that is supposed to be a protective coat that prohibits further corrosion. If the 409 is coated, it should last. My headers are 409. If I bought the Hogan DP, I might see about having it Jet coated, if they could do it with the braided section, I don't know. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |
