I used to own a 92 GS and I would buy parts marked as 93 and up and would have no problem getting them to fit. Maybe some styling changes and a few mechanical components changed from the 92 compared to 93+ (my guess) but not a whole lot. Exhaust components should be fine.

Thanks guys, but i noticed that my pipe kinda bended downwards at the end of the cat. So in stead of buying a $30 test pipe i went and got my cat cut off and had them weld in a straight pipe for the same price of $30. lol Thanks, to all that replied.

I'm curious... is it much louder? have you noticed any gains in performance?

Yes, this did helped me alot since my cat was clogged. Since my car is a 92 gs i knew the cat would be bad, and my car doesnt hesitate any more. Some times it would feel like its misfiring. But the sound didn't really change. It got a little louder but not alot. Some random person wouldn't really notice or hear that u deleted the cat.

cool I had thought about doing this on my k8 since I have one of the test pipes from ebay...

do you have to pass emissions tests where you live?

My '93 cat was clogged, so I hollowed it out. It sounded, and performed better, and passed emissions (with 2 3/4 oz. of Acetone in the full tank) here in Oregon. They check for it, and in some places, make sure it's hot (not hollow). I always wnated to put a pipe through the hollw cat, but it would make VERY little difference. what I really want to do is turn the cat into a glass pack, and run a Flowmaster muffler.

ON the 93' I just picked up, the previous owner removed the CAT and I have to say it sounds awesome. Not really louder, just deeper, throatier.

I love it.
