OEM cats (or any cats) can fail. If they do, it will cause debris to be thrown to the turbo which can cause damage to the turbine wheel. Test pipes are def. recommenced for safety and reliability reasons. Depending on the power level you will need an upgraded clutch. No upgraded tranny if you're shooting for sub 600rwhp, and maybe not even then.. we don't yet know the limits of the stock 6MT. If you have a 7AT then that's a different story. What are your goals?
