Qld members wanted - CES split dump pipe group buy


Recommended Posts

Guest darrinspencer

I have set up a group buy for Custom Exhaust split dump pipes for GTST and GTR

It would make things easier if most people were local to join in

Check out the group buy section for details

we need a total of 10 people to make it worth while.

Thanks

Darrin.

$550 for mild steel, $650 HPC coated

Remember this isnt just a dump, its a custom front+dump pipe with seperate internal wastegate pipe to maximize exhuast flow. It goes from your turbo, to your cat, so if you have a cat back exhaust and add this, u can expect a good 20kw with a bit more boost

the CES setup will work better than any other front and dump pipe combination, and will cost approx the same if not less

wat about a dump pipe for r34 gtt????

price??

Have ordered a 3" front and dump pipe for a R34 GTT and the same for a R33 GTS-T from Flying Performance in Sydney. They are mandrel bent mild steel with a "baked-thermo coating". They're made vehicle specific and are a straight bolt on item.

Have not seen the build quality yet as the order arrives early next week. From the reviews I've head from other people their stuff is pretty well OK and gives a noticeable improvement in performance. They claiman increase between 2 & 4 psi depending on existing boost pressure.

At $250 each I thought it was worth a try. If you're intrested I'll post a review after install.

Clinton,

Thanks for your imput, but the two pipes are not comparable.

I have actually got one of those all in one 3 inch dump pipes you are getting already on my car. I am taking it off and fitting a CES split dump pipe. Yes the pipes you are getting give a noticable increase and can be had for under $250 fitted, but I am after more power approx 10-15kwrw and better drivablity by fitting the CES split dump. The baked coating (paint) lasts about 1-2 months.

They can do 34GTT if someone wants one.

Would have to think you were getting a better unit for $300 extra. Just thought it is an affordable option to upgrade from standard.

Might bust the bank and get some heat wrap.

Darrin, can you possibly give a few weeks warning to when this will close so those who are late dont miss out, or set a cut off date.

Cars at the panelshop end of this week getting rear bar put on and front bar fixed, so ill try and pick the dump up asap in the next 2 weeks

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
