Kit Vexed Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 iPd's new SS full system looks great and the price is VERY reasonable @ $895 seeing as they were asking that much for the stage III downpipe alone... im sure, like me, a lot of guys have a cat back already from iPd or EST and dont need the FULL system. my question is, has anyone inquired about JUST the dp and race cat?? if so, how much did iPd (or would iPd - lucky) sell that portion of the exhaust for? i've got a straight flange, so their stage III was never an option for me, but the do have the straight option dp on their full exhaust.. even if they charged HALF for the dp and cat it'd be a good deal (seeing it's half the system). the other question i have is, would the iPd dp and cat hook up to EST's cat back?? probably not huh? lol. anybody bought this system yet? thoughts, opinions, etc???

Ipd Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 One thing to bear in mind is that our system does not connect up at the same location as the stock system. So if you bought our downpipe and race cat it would not bolt up to the factory cat back. The mounting points are quite different. You could however have it welded in I suppose. As it is we offer either the straight or angle flange downpipe separate for $240 and the remainder of the system as a complete kit. I also have the same cat we use available separate (just the Cat alone, no pipe) for $135 So you could purchase the downpipe, plus our race Cat and have it fabbed to your exhaust system (whatever it may be). Cost for those two parts would be $375 plus shipping method of your choice. For VS members we can usually do 10% off so you'd be looking at $337.50 plus shipping as a total.

Ipd Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 240 for your dp?? 3 in.? Just to clarify that is what you meant..... Correct, but remember the downpipe alone would not drop in as a replacement to your stock downpipe. Our DP is intended to work with our entire turbo back and so while you could make the DP work by itself it would require some welding and adding of pipe and a convertor to meet the stock cat back connection point.

This is def. on the list for my spring time mods, who knows might make it my tax return reward and get it sooner . Could you guys add any bungs for EGT/AFR hook ups?

Ipd Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thanks, the performance of the turbo back is pretty decent as well. 100% flow through design and good tone IMO. We did the turbo back with an 18T on our 1998 S70 T5M car and we didn't even flash the ECU to a stage III (just left it stage 1) and that car was struggling for traction even in 3rd gear. Kept a close eye on AFR and timing advance Of course I don't personally recommend such a setup but just to say it was a bunch of fun for the two days we ran it!

dongle Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Holy crap. I remember ipd's dp being almost $900. What happened to cause such a dramatic drop in price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swc75 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Hi Lucky But will it work for a P2 ( 2001 V70 T5 ) If not the whole system , what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm...I have a TME catback.......I bet your dp is of better quality than OBX, which is currently on the car. Holy crap. I remember ipd's dp being almost $900.

Ipd Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I'm working on a new oval exhaust design for P2 cars since clearance becomes an issue at the rear subframe. First article should be here in a month or so, then production pieces here a month or two after that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
