Price: TDB, ~ $250-$280 w/o CAT
Description:
I will be creating a 3" downpipe for my 9-5 ('00) Aero wagon w/ MT this Spring, and I figure if I am going to be custom fabbing up one, I may as well, see how much interest is out there for such a product. I will also fit and figure for those cars that have an automatic transmission as well (local to Bailey Island Maine for test fitment will gain you a discounted piece, as I do not have an automatic to test upon...!)
Plan, subject to change:
3" aluminized downpipe with a decently clean ' collector from the stock td-04 flange to taper quickly into the 3" segment.
2 O2 sensor bungs, one in stock upstream location, one close to stock 'post cat' location, w/ plug, for future CAT additions and/or EGT gauge, etc.
A first 'run' sized according (roughly) to expressed interest here and on 'that other site'.
Clean but not picture perfect welds -- No leaks, solid, but I'm of the mindset that a reasonably priced exhaust segment need not be a work of art if priced correctly.
Estimated 'ship time' is subjective, but I'm aiming for around the beginning of April, first or second week.
I will post pictures of a few completed pipes before any payment is taken / accepted; Will have a downpipe IN HAND ready to go before I will accept payment of any form -- No false promises and 'soon' to be had, as I realize that's very irritating, and can cause ill-will, regardless of how innocent a holdup could be.
Willing to build some with your typical RACE CAT's for an additional fee, to be determined for order volume. I figure ~ $80 EXTRA for such a CATTED pipe, but that could ebb and flow a bit, depending on order volume. Note, most 'race cats' are built for flow, not for long run activity, and will honestly burn up in 1 - 2 years.
Also willing to work with a custom order if provided measurements are accurate, custom flanges to mount to a large/different turbo setup, etc.
All will be MIG welded and I will attempt to 'pressure test' them via some cobbled together method, as to insure no leaks from the get-go!
So, please create a running list of PROBABLE interest by replying to this post, if you are really honestly probably interested. You're not signing your life away, but legit expressed interest would be kind, so I may order and construct in a timely and orderly fashion, without having a garage filled with downpipes!
Thanks in advance, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns,
Benjamin
