Patience will win. .
Hey bro, I installed the Throwdown DP on Thursday. I'm ready to ship the stock DP as soon as I get a address. I'll cover shipping costs and insurance also bro, no worries.

I have a stock DP I can ship down, but I would want the stock unit back afterwards.

If a contract can be written up, I would be happy to do this.

I will be going to fed ex or ups (whichever is closest to work) this week. Sorry, last week was kind of crazy.

I will insure and track it so make sure it arrives safely, etc.

Do I still qualify for the free piece, or is that deal expired? Tell you what, let's talk about that via email.

Why would XLR8 send him their dp when he didnt send his stock dp for them to use?

I shipped the unit to Excelerate today, scheduled date for arrival is Monday. I have emailed him the tracking number, so hopefully this goes well. I wouldn't be against doing a before and after dyno with the p2r vs. the excelerate DP. We can talk about that via email or private message, after they are able to setup the jig etc.

Thumbs up

Hi guys. I'm sorry i havent been able to update you guys due to my menengitis scare but the DP is still on schedule and going good. Josh at XLR8 will bee looking for someone with a TSX willing to do a dyno of their fully stock car then one with the DP if he can not find someone locally in Pheonix, AZ.

Out of curiosity, what is the status of this? I asked back in September, and it was stated that it (my oem pipe/cat) would be shipped back in the near future. And as we approach the turn of the calendar year, I am curious as to the status of this project.

Thank you.

Would be nice if someone could make a affordable dp and sell it here without price gouging everyone.

The problem is we weren't able to make this pipe and put it to market for under $250, which is the same price as the other pipe on the market. Our pipe would look better and be made out of a higher quality material but it would still be $250. Is anyone interested at that price?

Power gain results and sound clips?

I wonder how this will work with my soon to be reflashed ECU and new AEM intake

Question: I still need my OEM pipe back who do I need to contact to get this back? I loaned it on good faith, and nothing has come from it, I really just want it back.

@Optimus: did you ever get your pipe back? And did you get a free DP?

I did finally get my pipe back, however I never got the promised downpipe, or any compensation. But by the time I got the piece back, I just needed it to pass inspection, which I had failed already due to not having the pipe. So... end of the day, this fizzled into a grand nothing.

I have the p2r pipe for sell for super cheap, if anybody wants it. I can take pics, no damage, I just have the rv6 pipe now... so the p2r is just sitting in my basement.
