GI: MSP Tubular Mani / Downpipe

[Velocifero]

and do you guys think is a waste to add an electronic cut out to a vibrant exhaust?

I have it on mine.

 

[MSPLIFE]

but do you think is better to get a 3" S pipe in replace or cut out? Or both

Absolutely no complaints from me and a couple years running. Great price, quality and customer service. I sold my second CS s-pipe and bought mine with that $. I love it.

thanks, maybe ill have one worked into my personal downpipe once its all done and prototyped. wouldnt be a better time to do so!

I am going with this 3"s-pipe j-pipe and I am going to mate my dump to it and the Vibrant flex pipe behind that. Right now my dump pipe is in place of my high flow cat. I wouldn't mind putting that back in.

 

[MSPLIFE]

Now any idea of price for the s and J pipes on 3" and could we get the j with a bung for the wideband?

 

[Outlawstar98]

electronic dump, waht does it do?? i dont understand!! LOL

Edit:
I jsut read on the site waht it does. I dont know if i want to go that far with it. maby one day, bit ill be running mainly stright back with no cat. well ill have a cut out section for the cat itself which i can replace at needed inspection times.

my s and j will be one piece. Im not doing the seperate piece thing. its to many pieces to leak and break. corksport sells them seperate however.

if your asking about my downpipe yes an 02 bung will be an option. if its cheap enough i might just make it standard. im not in it for the money so if i make 20 less on each one but can give you guys the feature for free thats fine with me.

corksport j has one already.

and i cant discuss pricing at all yet. one, cause they have to get the parts and 2 its against the rules till i become a amm. but im not becoming a amm till i know for sure this is what people want once i get a ballpark

 

[MSPLIFE]

thats cool, but how long untill you get a prototype if thats whats call?

 

[JPR-MSP]

No i just sent the parts to them for modeling on monday. They have to model its space and then ill get some pics and price quotes. Give it time my son

OK, I'LL WAIT A LITTLE LONGER....(strike)(hear ya)

 

[nvmsp]

Personally I'm happy this is taking kinda a long time. Quit a job, but about to start a new one on thrusday so take your.

I can't wait for this all the way 3" dp to be on the car.

 

[Rogue]

interested in 3" DP.

Any ideas at to what the exhaust manifold might look like? Becase you said you're helping with the design I didn't know if there was anything out there that was similar to what you are shooting for. I got a nice offer on my currently uninstalled MAM manifold so I'm considering selling it and then getting this in the future. The idea of engine bracing still intrigues me.

not sure yet, i have to wait for them to do some preliminary modeling first. things were set back a few weeks cause of the family thing, i just sent everything out monday. i have a few ideas from the ol pea rolling around in my skull. I have to wait till they do the modeling cause im not sure what they are using for a collector and such so i cant really make anything solid.

Argh, decisions...

 

[terbow]

Argh, decisions...

well, i can say this. if i get a prototype, and a price and no one likes it or backs out, i wont be having it made. I dont anticipate that, but im just sayin.

 

[skylergrm]

I have the ability to have a MSP direct replacement tubular Manifold and Downpipes produced.

There are of course a few prerequisites.

1) There must be interest in having it made. Not interest like, they are made and 5 of you back out. Real interest. I know stuff happens, so i expect 1 or 2 of you to back out but if a multitude of you back out cause you changed your mind, i will curse your families.

2) To protect everyones interests, deposits will need to be made. 1/2 up front 1/2 when it ships. They will not be refunded unless you find someone to fill your spot*. This may not seem fair but i wont be stuck sucking up the cost cause you decided you overspent. Of course, if something happened and they didnt get made, i would refund them.

*Each case will be reviewed on an individual basis, however when u make the initial deposit you are agreeing to the terms set forth in the official GB thread once i get AMM status. I am not a crook but I am also not rich enough to cover the cost of your manifolds. No one is forcing you to buy this. If you cant afford it, dont.

This will be a Tubular Stainless Steel, Equal Length Mani. I will be helping design, test and impliment it. So, there will be NO money exchanging hands untill i have a final, dyno proven piece. It will have gusset bracing to aid in the reduction of stress on the piece. This company im working with is the real deal, they use CAD design, they actually purge their welds, they cnc, you name it. It will be a quality piece, make no mistake.

Once the interest is there we can work on options, like wastegate ports, egr bungs, etc, etc.

Heres the plan:

Gather Interest untill minimum achieved
Get prototype designed
Install and revise prototype
Rinse, Repeat as needed
Once final piece in hand, write install documentation
Send back for replication, start GB. Apply for AMM
Collect 1/2 deposit
Replication begins
Collect 2nd 1/2 of balance
Ship to customer
Enjoy

The same will happen for the downpipes, I will offer a 3 and 2.5. That is my tentative plan, I will of course have to see where the design takes us but we will cross that road when we get there.

So, with all this said, this is a gauging interest thead. Please add your name to the list only if you are serious. I cant stress that enough. I am a very fair person, ive been here a long time, but I wont hesitate to spell it out in black and white that if you back out without good reason, you wont get a refund. I have to pay for the mani's that people back out on.

For the MODS, Since this is GI only, there will be NO money exchanging hands, for any reason. I will apply for AMM if this moves forward to where i need to setup a GB.

Right now we will be limited to these 3 items. They are the parts that seem to have a problem being made and delivered. I want to bring them to you.

As far as pricepoint goes, expect more than 600 but less than 1k for the mani. Thats what im shooting for. Once we get past the initial interest, i can work on pricing a lil more, but i have to show them, its worth making. for the DP i have to see once we get a design.

Heres a few pics of their work, as u can see, the quality is top notch. I will let this thread go for approximately 10 days and if the interest is there, we will move forward, if its not, then it will fade away.

Is there much difference in gains between 2.5" and 3"? I'm almost considering swapping out my Corksport exhaust for the Vibrant (Looks like it doesn't include the s-pipe though, and it's 3" after the high-flow cat).
Or would it be about the same once I add the 2.5" downpipe to the Corksport exhaust I have now?
I guess another option would be to add an s-pipe to the Vibrant system.

Thoughts? (scratch)
