well guys. The admin still haven't reply any of my PMs. Last time when I posted the price for the other J-pipe I got a warning. I am not sure what I should do.

Update:
They have made 3 J-pipe so far which we will be doing some test fitting and dynoing this week. unfortunately I have to work monday to friday so I will try my best to get everything setup and done on saturday.

I will go to the shop and snap some pics tomorrow.

I still haven't heard back from the admin, but in the time being, the shop said they would only do a limited quantity of these. Possibly between 20 to 50 sets. So if you guys are really serious about getting it, please sign up. The number of pipes would also directly affect the price.

This would be a perfect setup to go along with the Greddy Exhaust!

I will have sound clip of J-pipe with greddy exhaust by early next week. (Car is still in the shop for some other stuff). As for dyno, the earliest booking they have is end of next week and they don't open on weekend. So I guess I will have to take a day off to do that.

I'm interested, but would like to know the HP and Torque gain (dyno'd) for a stock 5AT (2007) and price before getting on the list. I signed up for the GReddy exhaust, so this would be a nice combo.

Thanks for all the work!

looks very nice Lookinco...
If you can have this j-pipe tested on a 5at s/c with pro cats base and with j-pipe that would be great. Most of us s/c have the pro cats so it should work out. If it gains are good I will buy one...
thanks

That is pretty much my setup. I have a 5AT S/C with procat and Greddy Exhaust. Unfortunately I could only test that setup with my car as the other local SC TL is a 6MT.

Problem is, I woudln't be able to tell the gain unless i go do a before and after dyno, and dyno cost $100 per 3 runs.....

I will see what I can do.

when can that last bung be used? aren't the o2 sensor wires too short to reach there?

i'm really hoping this has good gains for NA!!

The bung is for the people who has aftermarket A/F sensor, like most people with superchargers do. For N/A people, you just simply cap it off with the supplied cap.

Eshift is making a J Pipe for the TL as well right?

If people miss out on this deal there is always that to look forward to.

e-shift is way fucking overprice for what you get IMHO. There is no way I would ever pay what they charge for something. Hell for those prices you are in Toda, HyTech, BuddyClub, etc... territory.

I give props to lookinco for getting this done at a more reasonable price. So far the quality looks really good as well.

Any updates on pricing or scheduling for the dyno? Would like to have an idea of what the pipe will go for if we don't know how it will perform. I'm sure there will be some gains, but interested in knowing where those gains are and how much to see if it justifies price. So....I'm in pending pricing and dyno...

I would be interested in this also as soon as I get the money for it. But to answer the power gain question Comptech's Tl Road race car was sort of the same setup of a j-pipe no cats. Obviously the real big gain is the removal of the 2 cats. But for someone looking for an even cheaper option just take the cats out and gut them entirely so they are completely hollow, still won't flow as well as j-pipe but it also won't pass emissions lol. Comptech would make the j-pipe but in Cali there are some serious emissions and they don't want to risk anything bad happening to the company. But this seems like a good option because I agree E-Shift is overpriced.

I am in the process of arranging a dyno day with the shop to have a few TLs dyno all on the same day. They don't usually open on Saturday but I am begging them to do it for me as I simply don't have any time during weekdays. (The other TL owners have to work as well so weekend is the only choice).

They will get back to me tomorrow. We will have results soon
