It's never too late, LOL. Because I have been roped into the Autosport show I am running the offer into next week also to allow for the delays :)

Thank you for all the extra orders, it seems I have to call a lot of people on Monday and order up some more flanges from my supplier :)

Right, now I have some good, and some bad news. The bad news is the project has been delayed by a couple of days due to staff being ill and this show. So the manifolds will be a couple of days later in being shipped. The good news is that Nick and Darren have been kind enough to let us borrow their cars for a couple more days so we can finish the development and get the rolling road testing done. More good news is with the extra days we are going to be developing a 2.5" downpipe/sports cat for both the VX220 and Astra :-D

Now, what would you all like me to test on the rolling road??? I will only have enough time to fit one system to the car and test it. So would you like:

1) Manifold and Standard downpipe/cat
Or
2) Manifold and 2.5" downpipe/Cat

??????

Just let me know and I will test it :-D

Thats great news Gary.

Any Idea of prices for the down pipe and CAT for the Astra.

Also have you had any EML lights / issues with your 200 CPI cats?

As for the RR testing i can not comment as i have not purchased a manifold off you. I supose it is down to the users that have purchased.

We will be keeping the price at £250.00 + vat for the Astra for this offer, I will probably hold the price for a couple of weeks to help someof you save :)

We do have occasional problems with the Mill light but that's just par for the course with running a sports cat :( Most of the time it's okay but I am aware of the issue.

have to agree with Alanoo, the bhp gains from just the 4-1 manifold are a strong selling point, so dyno just the manifold

but it would be in your interest to also show what the downpipe adds with the standard (crappy) manifold and your superb 4-1 manifold.

that will sell more and so is a worthwhile expense :)

Is it possible for me to change the down pipe with sports cat to one in 2,5" instead of the 2,25"?

What will the extra charge be?

Am I correct in thinking that the manifold pipes are usually all the same diameter between manufacturers?

Test has been done with just the manifold fitted. Sadly we just did not have the time to mix and match parts and get the tests done. I know it would be good but sadly im just limited on time :(

i'm glad you decided to make the 2.5 pipes.. does that mean you will do the U bend as well?

No worries. We dont have time to make a new system for the VX220 :( We cant just do the u-bend as it needs to be matched to the silencer (position wise) as the lines will change due to the bend radius.

The price will be the same for this offer and i will change your order now.

I was tempted to go with a 2bular full 3" system but I'm quite liking the look of this...

Best give me a call then ;)

It depends on how good a job they do. Ours are matched to the cylinder head flow rates :) Some companies may choose bigger or smaller primaries.

Now a 2,5" downpipe will be possible on the VX220, put me up for a set.
Garry, you have PM/mail.

No worries, im back in the office now so just give me a call :)




Right, thats got all those questions answered, now onto the good stuff :)

First the rolling road testing is now done. Here are the figures:

Before = 145.8bhp @ 6330 / 146.2 lbft @ 4825 - Standard car + VSE backbox
After = 150.1bhp @ 6381 / 147.1 lbft @ 5042 - Stanard car + Piper Manifold + VSE backbox

I hope you all like :)

We are now working on making a 2.5" downpipe/sports cat and system for the Astra for those that want one to go with their lovely manifold.

For anyone else who wants to place and order or add to the order we have, please call me asap so i can get it all in once parcel for you.

Kind Regards
