wow! thats a great deal... you guys just keep on tempting me to put myself into more debt .. cudos

 

[itzl0l]

have a fix for the CEL yet?

have a fix for the CEL yet?

we've had one since day one

we've had one since day one

Non fouler?

Is your test pipe 3" ID or OD?
Any chance you'll make one a bit larger?
Say 3.15" (80mm)?
Is there a plug to fill the WBO2 hole, so we do not need to use it later, but still have it there?

yes the nonfouler or extension method works well. it is 3inch ID. there is little reason to make anything larger honestly, the demand and added function are both minimal. we can plug the wbo2 port if people do not intend to use it from day 1.

Thanks for the fast response. I only asked about a slightly larger one because it would match the Corksport catback well. But, as you said, and I agree, there would be a minimal (if any) gain.

ooohhhhh i like #2 !!!
that is friggn sweet !!

What if you intend to use it down the road but no right after install? Would it be able to be unplugged easily?

 

[terbow]

its just a short bolt that unscrews. u can take it out at any time.

Gotch ya

Thanks

 

[Captain KRM P5]

yes it will be a 18mm bolt that blocks it off basically

Now all we need is a "Package 3"...DP + high flow cat + capped WBO2 bung.



I really wish I'd had the time to visit the shop when I was up in Chi a few weeks ago for the Police concert.

looks like the Vibrant catback has a donut-type flange connection meant for the stock DP. but the Cork DP has a flat gasket flange. what type of gasket is supposed to work between them? seems like a good leak path.

I suppose the Vibrant exhaust runs further "up" then the CS, correct? meaning it doesn't need a mid-pipe or race pipe to connect to the DP?


and can you elaborate a bit more on the total number of O2 bungs? how many does the whole MS3 stock exhaust system have? why can you plug one and still make the ECU happy? I mean, doesn't it need all the sensors to provide a proper return signal to function?

very interested in getting the Option 2 package to preserve some smog (smoke) suppression.

i'll get some pictures of the CS dp flange to clarify.

with the test pipe, the total number of o2 bungs comes to three - one for the primary sensor, one for the secondary sensor, one for a wideband of your own choosing.

 

[ZooZoom]

thanks. not to beat a dead horse, but can you elaborate more on the O2 sensor "fix"? is any extra hardware needed? does either package come with everything to do the install including all necessary gaskets and this "fix"?

the fix comes with the corksport downpipe so both packages will come with the CEL fix. it is in practice a physical extension for the emissions o2 sensor to prevent it from seeing the catalytic converter not being there.

 

[ZooZoom]

cool.

love to see any pics of the full install of both packages. especially #2

some sound clips of both setups would be super sweet! especially #2

Ken,i see you have the test pipes in stock! Order placed! Will i see this by friday perhaps? Thanks dude.

it cant be a flat flange if it bolts up to the stock mid pipe.
i've necer seen it but if it is meant to bolt up to the second cat, and the vibrant is meant to bolt to the DP it should all fit right up .

Ken should give me a package #2 just to make sure !(yes) (yes) (yes)
