CT's B-Pipe release date has slipped

FYI-

As of today, CompTech's release date for the B-pipe has been slipped to late this month which was originally targeted for today, Aug 1st.

I've heard varying numbers from CompTech which are not based on actual dyno runs. For a SC'd CLS, maybe 4-6 whp and for a non-SC'd CLS (with intake/headers/exhaust) maybe 2-4 whp. CompTech is suppose to have some dyno numbers out when the b-pipe is released. I've been told by CompTech that the b-pipe was designed to improve the exhaust flow for SC'd CLS. For non-SC'd CLSs, the gains will be minimal.

I'll be installing the b-pipe cause I see a SC in my CLSs future.

I was expecting something to be totally surprised that the b-pipe was slipped. And don't forget, when they say that the b-pipe will be released late this month, what they really mean is maybe sometime before the end of the year.

Sadly, By the time the B-pipe comes out there will be no more need for it cause half of you guys will own some other car by then.

What size Diameter piping will the B-pipe be and what material will it be made from?.. Will it come with clamps or will you guys need to get it welded in place?

I know there's already a thread on this, but here what I've been told by CompTech:
  • 2 1/2 (maybe 2 1/4) inches in diameter
  • About 4-5 foot long. I think it will be shipped as two bolt together pieces to save on shipping costs.
  • Has a resonator/muffler near the end where it bolts to the Cat
  • The other end bolts to the two axle-back exhaust-mufflers
  • 100 % SS
  • 100 % bolt-on solution
