A test pipe is a straight pipe that replaces the cat. It is not car specific.

just get the dimensions correct.  Lenght and inside diameter are the most important ones.

And how its attached, usually either flanged or slip fit.

There's also flange orientation to consider.  A cat definately won't exchange between the two, but a test pipe MIGHT.  I'm not sure if the RS flanges are of the same orientation.  If they are, then it'll fit.

I have one for a gsx, i think its only 2" though, still more flow than having the stock cat in there.
