#69610, "ATTN: ANYONE in Southern California with a Star kit!!!!"


          

The ADFX Downpipe Group Buy is ... not going well to say the least.

I know of a guy in LA (somewhere near it I'll confirm with him) who is currently making downpipes for Volvos.

priestmike: yea i can do that
GrnVolvoPimp: cool
priestmike: or even a stock DP
priestmike: might heelp
priestmike: we just make it 3"
priestmike: or hell
priestmike: 4"
priestmike: i have a volvo friend
priestmike: w/ a 4" DP on his 15g
priestmike: he says it spools stuipd fast
priestmike: like 17psi by 2100 rpm
priestmike signed off at 1:23:57 PM.

If he can use your car as a prototype, he says he can turn several out and sell them to other 2gnt'ers.

No price or time frame has been established, I just had that conversation a few minutes ago. Don't know ANY more details at the moment but I'll keep this thread updated..

4 inch downpipe is ridiculous
_________
96 talon esi-t
san clemente, ca


as needles of ice
are the ill winds' talons
the coldest of shadows
they seep unto the bone

silent souls leave .308 holes

4 inch no worky, I'm pretty sure 3 is going to be the limit.

Uh.. yeah.. thanks for... helping.. emoji

bottom line is I still dont have a sturdy downpipe

i dont care if its made in China as long as it: a.) fits properly b.) has flex section and dump pipe and c.) is 3"...
