  • Today we installed a 3in Catless Downpipe on a Focus ST, was a lot easier than what was expected to tackle this. Here is a small list of everything you will need to complete this install:
    Lift or jack and jack stands
    3/8 Ratchet
    17mm, 13mm and 10mm Sockets
    T30 Torx Bit
    12'' Extension
    15mm, 13mm and 7/8 Wrench

      If you want to be able to hear a turbo whistle when you start your car up then you're going to need a catless downpipe. My St sounded okay with a stock cat and a 3in exhaust but when I put a catless downpipe then you could hear a turbo whistle when I started the car up.
