Clear Image Automotive dyno testing, flow bench testing and more...
But i do hope to see some sort of GB for some of the parts!
I know since there was one kinda for the Tune, anything is possible for this!
More info about stainless steel DP.
Stainless is much better for heat than aluminized steel. It actually has very similar properties to ceramic coated steel, as in, it will retain heat inside while radiating less heat. It wont rust, unless under very EXTREME thermal conditions. For a turbo down-pipe, stainless is going to be the better way to go for the above reasons. But, aluminized steel will hold up very well for the price.
Aluminized steel is simply that, steel tubing coated with aluminum. It actually holds up very well and does NOT rust as easily as 409 stainless. As I described above, 409 stainless contains just enough alloy to call it stainless. It has a very high content of carbon steel and since it is NOT coated with anything, it will actually surface rsut sooner than aluminized steel. If you want true stainless, you want a minimum of 300 grade, usually 304L. 316 is considered more a food grade and 321 contains titanium, is the best stainless for exhaust but is considered exotic and costs enough it is special order only.
As for a GP on these items; I have had a GP on the boost tubing posted for a very long time.
More info on the down-pipe? Like what? It is 3" in and out, available with and without a hi-flow metallic substrate converter, made 15 more HP to the wheels on the dyno, will bolt-in and replace the stock converter directly, flowed 400 cfm on the flow bench, compared to the stock at 299 cfm. I really don't know what other info i can provide. Price is above.
I will be offering performance packages so multiple products ordered together will save you money.
I think that covers everything...

You would probably gain close to 20 whp on 93 octane if you had it avaliable (you would be able to add 2-3 degrees of timing) I made 307whp 330wtrq tune only (I am stock right down to the airfilter) on 93 octane and 20 psi. I am hoping to see 330 whp with intake intercooler downpipe and 22 psi, but we will see what all those boltons are really worth. It seems as though the stock catback flows a hell of a lot more air than most of us thought. The stock muffler flows 560 cfm, that is almost unheard of. The down pipe though, 299 cfm is not much as this motor will flow 32lbs per min max that is 418 CFM. So a down pipe is definately a must if you want full power.

Not if you are tuned for it. if not you would just be wasting your money.

No what we had to do was change the way the boost is applied for now cause of the clutch, once i get the clutch we can go back and pull way more out of her, i just didn't want to break anything




try 116
