Um... almost every person that posted indicated they want to see some dyno results.... ?? How is that speculating it will be awesome besides one person thinking it would be awesome with a SC? I was wondering about a split piping design a while back in a thread and a lot of people said it wouldnt be worth it. This design is very similar to what I was wondering about. So now I want to see dyno results of this compared to a lot of the other dyno results for supersprint, jdl, borla, AP, etc

Shipping that must be a nightmare. Slip fit overpipe/frontpipe connection? Not sure I like that.

Yeah, that slip fit is something I would likely get welded prior to install.

Interested in seeing some numbers.

Any Californians want to check the place out?

On NASIOC people are saying that their orders never got placed. Seems like you have to stay on their case to get your parts. Not sure how well they'd do with a fabricated piece like this. I'd be sure it was in stock and arrange a pickup.

It's interesting that they say "we were able to make significant gains through the mid-range without sacrificing top-end power", but they don't mention how low end torque was effected.

I believe the reason for some speculation is how the collectors are arranged, 4-2-1 instead of 4-1, or 4-2-1 with a really short 2. Having two smaller pipes gives more options to get around the crossmember instead of jamming one single larger diameter pipe there. I want to see it excel because I appreciate thinking beyond conventional approaches. Performance gains aside, I wonder if it will sound noticably different.

I guess I try to forget California exists. I'll fix that.

That is going to require some SERIOUS 02 sensor extension harnesses....

Hmm... I'd be willing to bet Nameless has toyed with ideas like this in their R&D. They already created a combo OP/DP. I wonder what their thoughts would be?

I think if the gains were worth mentioning they would have made a dyno sheet available.

Back from the dead! haha

Anybody buy this or seen one out in the wild? Looks like it could make some great power if the runner lengths were properly tuned.

I tried calling these guys to ask some questions about it but nobody was home. Oh well.
