Just got all my parts from Dan as well. SS header, D/P, catback. Very good quality. Have yet to install it, so I hope to get some sound clips. We had some issues, but Dan was kind enough to work through them with me. Can't wait to hear this new exhaust system!

I had a lean code that was tuned out so that I could get through emissions and in the past two weeks since the final tune was completed I have gone up almost 5 mpgs. Plus you can feel the difference big time. It is a great bang for the buck and Vince will look out for you until you get what you are looking for. for Beth, CIA, and Vince from Trifecta

I just had to cancel my 3 in DP with cut out and Highflow cat.

I switched to a Catless DP with no cutout


He switched it on spot.

With a return only taking a couple percent for the products he already bought. This was going to ship like today or tomorrow.

and he fixed this for me

You guys are awesome!!!!!!!!


Thanks SOOOOOO much Dan and Beth!!!

Ok so the boost piping was not the easiest part to install. Dan had called me up the day he sent it out to give some tips on installing. The piping crossing the engine on top(powdercoated) when connecting to the turbo, place the silicon on the turbo first, then loop your High Pressure Clamps on your pipe(careful not to scratch, I did) slide your pipe into the silicon and then slide your High Pressure clamp over your silicon. It is a really tight fit so you might have to push the high pressure clamp in good. The other tricky part is the piping going from the intercoller to the Throttle body. For this it make life easier if you just take your bumper off. The trottle body is another tight fit, so follow the steps you did ofr the Top Powdercoated pipe. The only difference is that your going to tighten a little the throttle body before even connecting it to the intercooler.This will give you some leeway to move around and adjust. The pipe connect the Top to the intercooler "IN" went in without a hitch. It took us about a good 3 hours from start to finish. Man, I love turning the car on and just hearing the air circulating throughout the pipes. I will dyno Tomorrow or Sat. I'll let you guys know. I love the setup!!!!! Special thanks to Dan and the team for their efforts!!!

The exhaust still sounds stock with the catted dp. It has a slightly more deep exhaust tone at idle, but not loud. At open throttle, it gives your car the sound it should have had when you drove it off the lot, lol. The backfires are awesome!

Benefits to this downpipe:
- no CEL's
- slightly higher boost (went from 14.6 to 15.2psi lol)
- because back pressure is incredibly reduced, boost builds easier and quicker.
-that results in better gas mileage as well!!!
-acceleration is quicker, dunno if there was a power gain but it sure felt like it! the car hadnt learned down the dp yet.

2nd best buy for your dollar! next to a tune


You guys that purchased from CIA and havent recieved your products yet, wait for them....it's absolutely worth it.

I got my DP last night...gonna try to install it tonight if it's not raining like it's been the past fews days.

P.S.- The quality on the DP is by far the best that I've seen of any parts that I've ordered over the years.

Great job Dan! Keep up the good work and the orders will continue to pour in!
