downpipes on the way

have cattless AR design downpipes on the way from **********s purchased as of yesterday. for those of you wanted dp's they have a batch on hand ready to ship right now.. no waiting.

should I take the time to have then ceramic coated locally to capture the excessive heat from the engine bay? I'm thinking it's probably worth it??

current modifications are procede v5 and vishnu DCI's. helix FMIC hopefully next month when they have more made.

my goals are 400whp on 93 octane. I hope to lie around there after dp's and FMiC. of course once shiv finishes up the progressive meth kit I know I'll bite on that as well.

I'd think you'd be around 380whp or maybe a little more. Get meth and then you're above 400

If you can swing the $$$ and don't mind spending it, yes. But is isn't a huge deal if you don't.

I didn't with mine, and I didn't even know you should do it.... optional probably... lots of people don't do this.

you are going to F'n LOVE this by the way... it is a SIGNIFICANT power increase.... I couldn't believe how hard it pulls now. Make sure you post a good review. I haven't been in a meth car yet (on wait list for Shiv also), but I hear this is another "wow" factor... I just can't wait for this thing.

Yep, on the wait list !! I just hope that they don't wait for the fuel thing before doing the Procede DIC maps with the new meth kit... they may do that.... and that would bum me out.

It was my pleasure helping you out with the AR Design downpipes Justin. I know that you're going to be extremely happy with the setup! We do stock and keep the AR designs downpipes in-stock for you guys without the typical 4-6 week lead time. I can't wait to hear some feedback from you so make sure to update this thread and also post up some sound clips for us to hear the system
