Downpipe is a pipe that goes from the hot side of the turbo to the exhaust. Some downpipes delete the cats, some don't. What you are talking about are called test pipes/cat delete/straight pipe. So before you call someone a retard, I suggest you learn what you're saying.

IT's not the same thing. Downpipes connect the turbo to the exhaust. Test pipes connect the headers to the exhaust.

And you made nowhere near 60 hp. Keep dreaming.
