S-Pipe Pricing
- Thread starter INGREXCO
- Start date
i voted 200-250, but honestly i think that's high.
i think a reasonable price is in the 150-200 range. its a very short pipe that should have very limited bends. maybe for a 'ss 3in best of the best' pipe i would pay more, but i'd just like a relatively low-priced upgrade from factory - it's up under the car...no one's gonna be sayin how shiny it is w/ the ss..

under 200 if its a single collector replacement...250ish if it has a separate passage for the wastegate that rejoins the main pipe after 9inches....DPs for every other turbo car on the market run for around 250 so I see no reason why this one should cost anymore...
One bajillion. Or at least thats how many MSP owners are feinding for this piece.INGREXCO said:
And just to prevent this from becoming another "I want a..." thread, he's just asking about the 'S'-pipe, nothing more, nothing less. Please keep from making requests, as he is only asking about making an 'S'-pipe. I think that possible manufacturers are being scared off because there are so many requests for different parts. Just trying to keep it focused, I see too many of these threads turn into junk.
One bajillion is right.
I think it would sell very well, especially whoever is the first to produce one at a reasonable price. Honestly I think 200-250 is still a bit high, but if it came with "all the fixins"(full 3", separated wastegate, ss, solidly built), I would still get it. But I can't really justify paying 250+ for about a half a foot of piping. Seriously, come on (jerkit)
This s*** is getting old though. I have seen countless threads that tease about a new s-pipe replacement, yet no one has delivered. The corksport one has been "in development" for god knows how long. Various other members have proposed trying to get a shop to make one, and selling to the community, but nothing has ever come of it.
Many people are VERY interested in getting an s-pipe replacement, and I think it would be a goldmine for whoever can deliver. If I had the tools and the skills, I would be popping them out day and night, and probably make a killing at it too.
Right now looks like perrin is the best bet, since they did recently come out with their fmic and they now claim that the s-pipe is in the works, but we shall see. At this point I am skeptical towards anyone claiming to have an s-pipe in the works.

you guys dont want to pay anything for this piece but if someone were to make a pipe like the iON piece I saw I'd say $350+ easily. I've seen several turbo pipes run much more than that.
The iON piece looks very quality and if it were available seperatly I'd pay upwards of $350 for it. Just because you don't WANT to pay more for it doesn't mean it isn't worth it.

people wil pay for what the want, but only up to a point.
i want to go out and buy an ebc, but for 300 bucks, i no longer WANT it, i'd just like to have one.
a 300-something dollar product has a very high opportunity cost, meaning there's a good amount of stuff that i can substitute this very short pipe with.
find the balance between what people want to pay and what people will pay - you'll definitely find a market.

look, the reality is that if you can have a downpipe made that is reasonably priced within the next two weeks, you will probably have a lot of business, otherwise, it will be a pipe dream because perrin will come out with there S-pipe/J-pipe combo within the next 4 weeks or so....if their pipe is reasonably priced ($200-300), then i will buy it, if not, i am going to make my own....
