Default Difference in Downpipes?

Anyone know if there is a difference between a stock srt4 downpipe and a stock sxt downpipe. Looks the same, but what about the internal chamber? Also has anyone modified their downpipes to 3"?

What "internal chamber" are you talking about? It's a piece of pipe...

On a turbo car, isn't there a connection to the hot-side of the turbo? The non-turbo cars wouldn't have that piece for that connection. If my understanding of it is correct, then no, they wouldn't be the same.

no they are not nearly the same. a downpipe gets bolted to a turbo, were a sxt does not have a downpipe just a manifold to cat... instead of an srt having a manifold, to turbo, to downpipe to cat.

so NO they are not the same.

I might be referring to the cat pipe...they are the same? The pipe that attaches to the rear of the engine, coming off the rear turbo exhaust.
