As the subject states, does anyone have a list of the current options on the market available for a 2014 SHO w/ PP.  Need cats for emissions. I've been reading through some threads, I saw some fitment issues with the cooling block and o2 sensor on some brands?

Thanks!

The PPE pipes I sell on my site are the only ones that will pass all readiness checks with or without a tune.
No fitment issues that I'm aware of with the PP cars.
Downside is 3-5 weeks right now for them to be made, PPE is swamped.

I have the PPE catted DP for (three)years now and IMHO could not be happier with the overall fitment and quality and especially passing emissions for  three years in a row is a big plus factor in my books.  Z

Just to reiterate, the PPE are the only ones that can pass emissions. Others need the rear O2 sensors disabled or you will have a CEL. You can not pass with them disabled or with a CEL.  Kind of leaves you stuck.

I would either go PPE fatter or non-catted and plan on swapping for testing.  Swapping is not a fun job though.

I will probably be ordering some as well.  I see a lot of good about the PPE set up, but they are basically $1000 for the catted and ceramic coated ones.  Stainless works has their catted ones for $766.  Are the PPE's stainless?

Definitely get what you pay for US T304 stainless steel,performance and the ability to pass emissions testings all in one package,here's the link   http://www.ecopowerparts.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=150 .Z

Unless you want the additional looks or live in an area with serious corrosion issues, I don't see a need for the additional coating.  Bare stainless works fine for most applications.

No reason to do ceramic coating and yes of course they're stainless
I offer it because some people demand it, it's the only reason.

I thought the ceramic coating wasn't for corrosion aspects but for the thermal qualities?

The only part that gets hot on the OE pipes, like really HOT is the catalytic converters. Stock is uncoated, and I see no real benefit to coating the pipes, other than looks.

I coated mine in flat black exhaust paint, mainly for looks, as I like everything to blend in on my car.

Finally ordered a set of ppe catted dp from Mike today, had a lot of stuff going on finally able to make it happen. Anything else to consider, gaskets or anything?

OEM gaskets should work.  Double gasketing sometimes needed.  Doublecheck installation a few days after, as bolts can come a bit loose.

Plenty-of-PB-Blaster for those rusty-dusty-bolts. 
Due take (extra precaution) when removing,handing those Fragile precious- 02 sensors!.  Z

Good choice on the PPE catted downpipes.  I've been running them without a tune for 20,000 miles and the car is completely happy.  No CEL and no issues of any kind.  Car has a little more rumble at idle and seems to come in boost slightly sooner.

I bought a new set of OEM gaskets from the dealership prior to install and used them since I had them on hand.  That being said, they were not necessary in the least.  Unless you mangle the factory ones getting them off, they are fine for re-use multiple times.

Per Z, PB Blaster highly recommended.  Spray liberally the night before if possible. 

My flex coupler on stock pipe is frayed and i think it might be leaking, so might as well upgrade. Was going to do meth but ill wait till all these mechanical things are handled.

Going to have my bud install them, hes a police mechanic and does side work out of their shop, has a few lifts and all the tools etc needed. I want to change my ptu fluid and radiator fluid/swap a 170tstat in as well so hopefully we can get all that stuff done at once.
