Hello All,

I spoke with Mike (aznbo87) from ATLP and he said if we have 10 people he is willing to make the product.

Interest and information was from here.

Any other takers? It would be nice to add some more hp and tq to the RL.

damn I wish I could do it...funds are very tight now!

come on blazing, its cheaper than the s/c mod you wanted.. and you can use this before/after the charger also.

Depends on the price, if it was $250-300 then I'll consider it. But I feel kind of iffy about being a guinea pig.

I'm still down. Depending on the cost. $300 is a good range.

Chulodee

If it becomes available, I'm definitely down to get one!

i think pricing is going to be $399 (same as TL and what was quoted in the older thread)

so far we have

im down if its a resonably price.

vletnguyen

That's 3 in and 3 maybes..
I know we can get more interest than this..

Dopes6070

Seriously! I want this haha. My stock J-pipe is dented from a truck tire that jumped out in front of my car... I've been holding off on buying a new OEM one just to see if something would come out aftermarket.

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

sucks, but atleast you get to upgrade now for probably the same price as oem.

4 in
3 maybe..
i dont know how to edit the 1st post to update the numbers

fatty

I'm down and I think I'm local to Mike.

vletnguyen

fatty,
i saw that you were interested from the last thread.
but wasn't sure you were still around.

- what metal will be used in first round production?
- aside from the performance gains, could a gain in mpg be plausible?
- what would the eta be from payment to delivery assuming you'd need payment from the 10 before starting

Appreciate the revival of this idea, thanks.

Dopes6070

I hope it would be stainless steel.

I don't think any MPGs will be gained but you wont loose either (as long as you stay off the skinny pedal) haha

lstevennl

i wouldnt mind trying straight true dual

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

steve,
the true dual would complement that s/c nicely

plastikman

I thought they already tested and made this? No?

23109VC

what would this do for us? make it louder or actually make power?

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

they didnt make it yet.
and it should make it a little louder (aggressive) and yield some gains.
check the graphs on the link provided on the first post.
until they have a tester we wont know 100%, all theoretical and going off of the TL

fatty

Cmon people, this is the best bang for the buck! 6 more!

Dopes6070

I really hope we can get the 10 people for this. Between 5 & 10HP is so worth the price plus it will help through the whole power band not just at high RPMs (if it provides similar gains to the TL).

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

I KNOW!!.. just need a few more people..

neuronbob

This is back? I wish it had come out while I owned my RL, I would have been 100% in. This costs a lot less than the axleback exhaust I got for my CTS-V last year ($1400).

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

come on fellas, just need a few more people.

plastikman

We have tried this before, like Bob said "this is back?" It for some reason just never comes to fruition.

vtr1000sp2

if it's full SS constructions including flanges & welding, I'm in.

vletnguyen

iTrader: (1)

its 400 for an increase of ~ 7hp/13tq (TL) which isn't bad, but the curve is where its at.

JPSMAN

How easy would this be to install??

neuronbob

You may want to go to the 3G TL side to see install pix, or PM aznbo87. My recollection is that the install is somewhat similar.

Hey all, we will need a new test fitter as we only did a rough fit last time. Our prototype vehicle (Supergreen) sold the car so we were never able to get a fully working item.

If your local to Westminster, CA, please PM or e-mail me and we can set this project back on track. Test fitter will also be compensated with a discount on the part as well. The J-Pipe we designed recently for the new 4G TL which has an extremely similar 3.5l engine. The only difference will be the rear connection and a slight increase in length. The power gains we gained on the 3.5 engine was also a nice amount more than what we had with the 3.2l dyno (8whp/14wtq).

Mike,
I think the member, Fatty, is local to you also.
Hope we can have this soon, the snow/ice is melting and i can do a DIY install guide

JPSMAN

Add me to the "interested" list. A DIY specific to the RL would be nice, although its has to be rather close to the TL.

...I will do anything for more torque

sign me up ... if you ship to canadians !

looking good!
need a few more to cover for the people that are maybes.
this would be great if it works as advertised. need this and some sort of cam or engine management and the RL would be a serious luxury performer.

You have my interest as well, price and material being the deciding factors.

vtr1000sp2

Where in Canada are you? I'm in Ontario but I get all my stuff shipped to my parents place in NY and could help you out too if its feasible.
