80mm Exhaust for the MSP

[xDJ DUBx]

I thought they were making a j-pipe back & a matching DP for those who wanted a full 80mm turbo-back exhaust?

It hasn't been entirely clear, i'm pretty sure they're figuring out what will work best for them. This is what he's said so far:

IF we did do a 80mm downpipe (S-pipe) we would probably go with a cast piece due to the tight bends. IF we did do this it will be a while until it would be ready, as in months after the 80mm exhaust was ready.

The idea was to do a j-pipe back system in 80mm. The problem I have been looking at is going from a stock or even a CorkSport S pipe to the 80mm is a pretty big jump in pipe diameter.

Option 1 is a 65mm S pipe flange connection and 90 degree bend then flare to 80mm.

Option 2 is a 65mm S pipe flange and jump straight to 80mm. Just trying to squeeze the 80mm pipe into factory stud pattern will be tough.

What does everyone think?

Derrick

We are building a test product. The final decision on the turbo connection hasn't been made yet. I should have an date for the test part in a week or so.

We are planning on 80mm everywhere.

When I put up the post originally the thought was a oil pan back exhaust in 80mm for $450.

I will be able to be alot more clear on the price when we get the first sample finished up.

Thanks

that's a lot of quotage.

im deff intersted.

plus everything is 1 day shipping. ya!!!!

why doesnt corksport "base" a downpipe design on the ghl? it worked out, and im sure cs would make a great rendition of the ghl, and prob sell it for much less

it's actually cheaper to make your own.... a whole 50 dollars in piping for the dp...

yeah but you have to get it fabbed up, and taking it to a shop will cost quite a bit in labor for all the bends and different angles

I'm making all of mine... borrowing a welder from work. and it's increadably hard to make tight bends like the S-pipe, mine will be one 90 degree turn, and 2 45's

hmm...do have an plans or sketches of your design?

 

[GiJoe]

in my head lol theres a similar photo of somethin simalar I am going to do in an FS thread... I'll try and find it.

 

[GiJoe]

I will be welding the bends since I ont have the equipment to bend 3" tubing and the brackets to atach to the mid pipe will be like the ones on th stock setup.

 

[GiJoe]

FYI that is a setup the LinuxRacer may be selling, it is for a T3T4 setup with MAM exhaust mani.

 

[protegerider]

yeah, but to make a dp for the stock set up, you have to account for the fact that the turbo is not perpendicular to the block, so making a perfect fit will be a b*tch

it will be time consuming but the motor is out of the car right now and all i really have to do is. get the motor back in the car with the midpipe back in place and get the angles right and pop a weld on it to hold the pipes in place take it off and weld it up and than make another one off of the mock up, clean it up and throw it on...

 

[protegerider]

good deal man.

 

[GiJoe]

yeah... I just gotta get the motor done lol then I'll have this DP done, and hopefully take it to a local shop and get a gb together...

CS - can you check PM's pls

LMK asa u can

I am 100% interested in this exhaust. I have the 2.4" CS exhaust and absolutely love it. I'm afraid it may be too small diameter for my future goals though. If it is a similar design, and tone, I'm all in for it. I know someone else that is running the 2.4" as well that would probably be interested in this too!

 

[RX]

Interested.

Bump for an update...
