Richie v6

You guys have been sending me emails, PMs and calling me non stop about these. Here is the situation I have 50 sets of brand new V2 precat deletes sitting in a warehouse in Taiwan. Since shipping is expensive I wanted to combine them with my next batch of Jpipes to save cost. The only problem is that the Jpipes wont be ready for ~60 days. There has been considerable interest in these If we can get 10 people to put down a deposit, I will have them flown in 3 day UPS Air. The final price will be $345 shipped in the 48 states by Fedex Home or $363 to Canada by Priority mail. Lets make it happen guys

Sounds good! i really need to pick up a set of these but im not ready yet for the initial 10. I hope to catch 1 set of 50

,, i bought this precats why is it a v2 version ? anything wrong with this one or something, plz explain

RonJonTL757

I think the V2 were introduced because some of the V1 pre cats had issues with some of the welds cracking

1FAST_TL

When you say some of them, it means not all of them right ? im installing this on my TL today also have the rv6 j pipe and 3 inch custom exaust do you think is a good gain ? hp tq ?

BostonSilverTypeS

will installing the precats give me a check engine light or will this kit come with a o2 sensor simulator plug of some sort...Live in Mass and can pass as long as I have no CEL and it passes when machine hooks up to OBD2 connector...

blkaspec

you should be good to go for all your questions. the only thing you wont pass is a visual or an actual emissions test.

RonJonTL757

yes not all, and im not an exhaust expert on piping but IMO 3inch piping is too big and i think you will lose low end TQ but Highway top end you should see an improvement.

1FAST_TL

Thats good for me, may go with 2.5 inch on exaust, will post pict when done

BostonSilverTypeS

are you saying this from what you heard or do you have this installed and dont have an issue with CEL? just want to be 100% sure before commiting to this purchase, I can pass visual no problem and we dont do the sniffing of emissions here so i would be good in that department...Main Concern is the CEL and failing when hooking up to OBD2....RV6 do you know anything about this issue? Thanks in advance

^^^NO CEL, thats what the defoulers are for.

BostonSilverTypeS

Nice, Thanks alot L's TL........I will most def be getting this hopefully one of the 50 batches, this initial 10 is tough right since I'm waiting for me income tax....Thanks again guys

blkaspec

exactly...what he said

no i dont have, but i have been around long enough to know these things. i am considering this purchase as well, but have my reservations as well as the whole unnecessary spending of cash...decisions decisions....

Yes RonjonTL is correct the V1 precats were more prone to cracking due to the thinner metal being used. Not all of them had this problem just a higher percentage then we like. You will get some good top end gains but with the 3" exhaust you may loose some TQ. That is a huge exhaust BTW are you going FI?



The kit comes with O2 sims you shouldn't get a CEL.

whats the deposit Richie?

Richie v6

It is $100

RonJonTL757

ok so what your saying is $100 and about 60 days we should have them?

Rick_TL-S

May consider this. Just don't want to go through the process of swapping them out when emissions comes.
Then again, I wouldn't mind a full "straight pipe" from the engine to the exhaust.

hey rich, any reason why you deleted the mini flex pipe on the rear PCD from the earlier batch of V1's? i thought maybe it would help keep some strain off the metal and welds from the engine movement. ive got this set and havent had any issues thus far.


anyhoo, the V2's look pretty nice! IMO, the best bang for the buck mod available for our cars right now

RonJonTL757

thanks

if you've been good thus far (you were from an early batch)... and you havent had problems... then ur golden...

most of the welds giving could easily been mig welded locally for cheap also... in case you ever do have a weld go

Bender

Yea, do not go 3". I had 3" pipe on my v8. It would be way to big for the TL. 2.25 or 2.5 at the biggest.

Richie v6

People complained of noises coming from the flex pipe. I always thought it was a good idea but it seems that V2s are holding up fine.

theproblemkid21

does anyone know if there illegal in virginia for the noise level????
