Lets talk X-Pipes, Rouge or SuperSprint?

Starscream · 01-24-2011, 08:02 AM

don't suppose anyone knows of any good vendors for the SS X pipe do you?
I see lots of places sells it, Most of my mods have been bought from the forums or custom made by me so I don't have a lot of experience dealing with vendors

Unless of course anyone is selling a Supersprint X pipe

Here's where I got mine, $615 plus FREE shipping. Took about 10-12 days as they got it in from Italy. Good customer service too. Cheapest I found plus the free ship. I also doubt that most places keep these in stock so two weeks out is probably the norm. I would guess shipping anywhere else to be between $25 to $50 as its a weird shape to ship.

I would check out www.custom-performance.net and get a price quote from them. They quoted me the cheapest price so far for headers/section one.

I ordered my exhaust cans from eurosport design. My x pipe was purchased off of mousitch and I couldn't be happier with the transaction... Thanks again.

Is it actually worth doing?
Do you honestly get any power from it?
I'd imagine it would help the headers blow out a few more, so I'm thinking to buy a pipe for when I do my headers in the next few weeks,

But I see Supersprint and Rogue makes them (possibly more vendors too)

I haven't done too much research but whats the call on these?

The cans out back are Supersprint Powerloops, as I'm not a fan of over loud exhausts,
Sporty is fine, noisy is not

Give me your opinions guys

What did you end up doing with O2 sensors - precats in headers, post-cats in behind the secondary (now primary for you) cats? How many miles and working ok? No software, right?

That will be the setup, but haven't installed it yet,

There will be no problems, This method is proven to work from a handfull of Z4M's on the boards using it and many E46 M3's using Euro cat pipes and running fine,

even passing CA emissions! lol

Custom performance is the best place to buy this I guarantee, give them a call at 540 903-3405 his name is Jack.

Do you have a link? I'm wondering if this only works with Euro section 1, or if it would work with NA section 1 as well.

The same,
From what I understand it's the same pipe except for the bungs already in place

Starscream · 01-24-2011, 09:25 PM

I contacted custom performance but no answer and no response to email,
Does anyone remember the price from them?
They don't show it on the website,

Diokaef · 01-24-2011, 09:30 PM

leave him a voice-mail, it's always hard to get him on the phone

mfanatic325 · 01-24-2011, 11:56 PM

Lemme know if you get in touch with them. I'm looking for an x-pipe solution as well as a section1 solution

Diokaef · 01-25-2011, 01:06 AM

^^With you CA case I would really wait what I'm putting in the market. just my $0.02

X-pipe I'll probably still go for SuperSprint, since I have SS Race mufflers.

But the section1 probably is a good idea to wait for yours. That way I can try and pass smog with the cat inserts right?

Do PM me as soon as it's ready! I'll even test fit or whatever to get discount, as I originally offered (if you remember) =P

Yup

He emailed me back,
$639 shipped, and they are in stock in Italy so it will take 10-14 days to be with me

To the best of my knowledge there haven't been any installed yet. (other than RE test fitting of course.)
RE is still waiting for the 1st shipment to arrive.

I was told by a buddy that his buddy knows the owner.

so I am going over there in a few weeks (RE is located a few miles from my house) to see if I can pull some strings and get one discounted and who knows maybe they love my car so much they give me a free one

Sounds good.
See if you can get a better answer on the shipment date, they have been pretty vague with me. (Dave T.)

fo' sho'. BTW I know its a hot debate but did you figure out if there is going to be a power loss on these? Or better yet what was your reasoning on picking these up rather than the SS ones?

I have Eisenmann rears (OE flanges), the RE won't need any adapters.
Compared to OE with all the crush zones & the weird resonator, I don't see how the RE can fail to improve the flow.
