FA20CLUB Over Pipe Front Pipe & Cold Air Intake Now Ready
 

Just wanted to share this weekends fab work. We managed to get another fresh test car so we wouldn't have to removed the turbo kit from our AT. The Over pipe is constructed of 304L Stainless Steel Mandrel bent pipes as well as the Front Pipe. Fits factory components so no worries there.

These are just some crappy cel phone pics. I get some nice ones that show just how nice they really are.

The intake we went a different route. We wanted to minimize bends in the system and maximize flow. We opted for 2.75" Aluminum Tubes transitioning to 2.5". We are actually able to fit the entire system in 2.75" but you would have to use a rubber liner to protect it from rubbing. Ill be testing its as a complete 2.75" kit as well as with a 2.5" front tube. This should net some really nice consistent gain on our new road race car while on the track. We will be dyno testing Monday for you guys.

Tentative Pricing:

CAI Intake System $245
Over Pipe $250
Front Pipe $225
Over & Front Pipe $500.00 Shipped

The car lost power without tune adjustments. I have noticed that most customers who install the over & front pipe contact me with datalogs running extremely rich from their current tune and complaining of a loss of power. Ill have all the parts uninstalled tonight and be able to run the car with all stock parts tomorrow and I can almost expect the baseline to improve. Whats amazing is that this combo is almost what im seeing with the Drop-IN header back setups ive tuned locally. They have made 3-4whp more than this car did tonight. Not bad for a minimal investment. Im not done with this tune but the car has a track day this weekend so we have to start installing all the goodies for it. I let the tune conservative since the engine only has 80 miles on it. After this weekends track day ill finish extracting as much as i can from here and still leave it safe for the upcoming season. This car is purpose built for track only events in the southeast so she will be seen @Homestead, Sebring, Daytona, Road Atlanta etc

Looks great

Can't wait for results on the intake

Sooooooooo when you guys gonna do a header!

Will you be offering the intake painted black?

We offer powder coating as well

These are really nice products, really thinking about getting that over pipe.

Hmm.. that intake looks familiar. Anyways, looking forward to seeing the achieved gains with proper tune.

Header will be ready right before Christmas.

so a few questions for you guys

1. catted or test pipe only?
2. mind some close up off car pics to show the welds?
3. maybe I'm misinformed, but doesnt metal tubing defeat the purpose of CAI? like wouldn't the engine bay heat it up therefore defeating the point?

Only so many ways to go CAI on this car. Our other idea would have made a longer tube and been an even tighter fit. We just improved on what we saw as being a CAI system with 3 90 degree bends. Didnt make much sense to have that many bends slowing down velocity.

if u sell me the up pipe, mid pipe and headers at cost ill put up dynos for ya :)

1. both offered catted version is $70.00 more
2. once we finish up all have some close up pics of the final piece hi-res. fyi welds always look good when you fuse the pipes together so thats baller but not any addition to strength.
3. engine heats composite materials just the same. The one advantage I have with this design is I can always add some sort of thermal barrier coating internally or externally or simple thermal wrap goes a long way.

nice offer but we have a AWD dyno here:happy0180:

awesome. i may be over there by new years then (5 mile drive, no shipping pickup FTW lol)

awwww i think i read once that you guys would rater show independent dynos. :D

I am also trying to figure out why there is such a price difference between different companies test pipes and up pipes.

capitalism.

that's what i have been thinking.

I like the fact that the intake is straight as possible and the longer the better, I like it.

:thumbup:

Well larger companies have to charge more to cover their operating costs & overhead. Its the price of doing business on a larger scale.

Good thinking

i was just thinking about motiv and perrin.

now you got another option.....

nice pieces, im digging the prices as well.

Looking forward to dyno results!!

if dynos, pics, and videos look and sound good, count me in bortha, cant beat those prices

any estimated price thus far?

^and will it be catted to satisfy my sensors?

you can order it in either version or get a reflash from us and disable the secondary....

none just yet

Dyno tomorrow hopefully time permitting....

:party0030::confused0068:


:popcorn:

Will disabling the secondary be detectable by emissions OBD II?

if you have ecutek cable you should always flash back to stock before going in for dealer service. then your diagnostic settings will be renabled. and it takes more than 1 drive session for the cell to move in pending

Newer images with weld pics uploaded on 1st page

So have you tested the intake yet or is that pending?

I already stated dyno testing is tomorrow....

Hyped to see the numbers on this. You have earned my business with that midpipe though, can't beat that price!!

I'm interested in the intake. I'm still looking for one to finish my STX build.

When you post dynos, could you do a stock vs. intake installed vs. ecutek tune & intake installed? I'm curious what power it makes with a tune.
