Which downpipe is best?

[TrAb]

Hey guys i am trying to figure out who is selling the nicest of downpipes for these cars right now? Also trying to figure out what size most BPU owners look for. I was thinking about getting a 4in one, my car is mostly stock just want to really get a little performance and clean up the look of the bay a little. Thanks

Here is my vote RJC :biggrin:they have a 5'' also

3in DP

I just got the one from Gbodyparts, and it is beautiful. It has some of the nicest welds I've ever seen.

For most cars, a three inch pipe is more than enough. Unless you're planning on going deep into the 10s, there's no need to go any bigger.

What size is the stock pipe?

 

[asloan5]

rjc fit very well made in usa and I believe it will even clear atr headers

 

["Turbo-T"]

What size is the stock pipe?

2.25 to 2.5 inches, depending on who you ask and where on the downpipe you measure from.

Yeah that RJC one does look nice. I wonder how hard it is to make these, might could get one done locally???

Rjc dp looks great. So does the one from ta performance. Check that one out too.

On a mostly stock car there is no need to go bigger than 3"

On a mostly stock car there is no need to go bigger than 3"

second that: 4" is definitely overkill. Using the 3" TA Performance pipe and had no issues with fitment/clearance

Nobody mentioned Terry Houston.

Can't get them anymore, or it's a treasure hunt to get one.

Exactly! Mine is a work of art! I just sold my G-Body 3" & it was fine & fit well (altho some don't) but not nearly as nicely made as the RJC IMO.

I haven't personally tried the GBody DP. But I have heard good things about it.

I do, however, have a 3" from RJC and it's awesome.

Cotton's ...

My vote goes to Cotton's...Brian can custom-make one for you in regular steel or stainless steel, up to 4" dia.

Claude. :wink:

Anyone have any experience with Kirban's. I will be installing on a stock turbo.

There have been several new Houstons in the parts section. Also many used ones. Getting ready to put a brand new Houston on MAXCOM's car. They're out there.:biggrin:
