Invidia Catted Downpipe - 2010-2014 Subaru Legacy GT

The Downpipe: Where Stage 2 Starts on the Legacy GT

The Invidia Catted Downpipe for the 2010-2012 Subaru Legacy GT replaces the factory downpipe with a 3-inch stainless steel unit. The high-flow catalytic converter maintains emissions compliance while significantly outflowing the restrictive factory unit. A tune is required after installation.

High-Flow Cat: Compliant and Free-Flowing

The high-flow catalytic converter included in this downpipe flows significantly more exhaust gas than the factory unit while maintaining catalytic function. For builds requiring a street-legal exhaust, the catted downpipe provides the majority of the performance benefit of a catless unit while keeping the vehicle compliant in most jurisdictions outside California.

3-Inch Stainless, Bolt-In at OEM Turbo Flange

The Invidia downpipe connects at the factory turbocharger outlet flange and runs to the factory cat-back connection point. 3-inch mandrel-bent 304 stainless steel throughout. Factory O2 sensor bung positions are retained. Additional O2 bung included for wideband sensor. A tune is mandatory after installation.

Straight From Subispeed

The Invidia catted downpipe is the correct first major exhaust upgrade on the Legacy GT for owners who need to keep the car street-legal. The high-flow cat outflows the stock unit significantly while maintaining emissions compliance in most states outside California. A tune is not optional with this installation — running any aftermarket downpipe on the stock ECU calibration is a reliability concern, not just a performance one.

What's Included

• Invidia Catted Downpipe
• High-flow catalytic converter
• New exhaust gasket and hardware
• NOTE: Does not include turbo-to-downpipe gasket — source separately
