Default Test Pipes?

Any companies make test pipes for Long tubes?

I'd like to use them for race use.

Most aftermarket cats I see pictures of, look like
they're straight-through and a piece of exhaust
pipe cutoff from your local muffler shop would
do? Getting them on & off easily is the trick;
you might have to get your cats and a matching
piece of pipe both flanged for bolt-up.

Mufflex makes offroad tubes for stock exhaust
cats.

Some headers/y pipe kits come with "off road" pipe as part of a kit.

Like said above, a straight through pipe wouldn't be hard for an exhaust shop to make.

Hooker headers and maybe a custom x-pipe.
