Description
Unleash the performance of your 2022+ Subaru WRX VB with the PLM Power Driven Catted J-Pipe Downpipe. Designed specifically for 6-speed manual (6MT) models, this premium performance upgrade improves exhaust flow, reduces backpressure, and delivers increased horsepower, torque, and faster turbo spool while maintaining a high-flow catalytic converter for improved emissions performance.
Manufactured from high-quality 304 stainless steel, the PLM J-Pipe features mandrel-bent tubing, precision CNC-machined flanges, and hand TIG-welded construction to ensure maximum strength, durability, and long-lasting performance. The 200-cell metallic core high-flow catalytic converter provides significantly better exhaust flow than the factory catalyst while helping reduce exhaust restrictions.
Its two-piece design, V-band flanges, and V-band clamp provide a secure, leak-free connection and simplify installation. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, the PLM Power Driven J-Pipe installs using factory mounting locations and includes the necessary installation hardware.
For maximum performance and proper engine operation, an ECU tune is strongly recommended. An O₂ sensor adapter is required to help reduce the likelihood of a check engine light after installation.
Whether you're building a street-focused WRX or preparing your VB chassis for track use, the PLM Power Driven Catted J-Pipe offers the perfect combination of performance, quality, and value.
