I was agreeing with you (in a roundabout sort of way). When UR first made their long DP, at RRE 8 out of 10 had the welds snap. To UR's credit it appears they have learned from their mistake, in that they now have a "pizza slice" at the bend, rather than just the flex joint:

 

we have installed over 40 or so UR evo X downpipes- never a broken one! or any other UR parts-

just FYI

I wonder if CBRD would make a Wide mouth DP and manifold for the RAD turbo.

AMS told me to just upgrade to the Evo X because they make the widemouth for it and have no plans for us. Which I understand.

So the best option right now seems to be the UR Long DP for the ralliart.

 

Those are really great numbers!

Any Idea of what kind of increase we could expect to see from E85 and the RAD?

 

def looks like I'm gonna go with the RAD due to costs of the EVO X swap, plus its always cool to have something different. Its a daily driver so I dont plan to go big on the hp numbers.

This (RAD LITE) is 'feasible' and keeps the DD joy.

When my stock turbo needs a rebuild - this will be the solution!

 

I really enjoyed my RAD Lite on e85. It was a blast, and I hung with cars I shouldn't have because of the super quick spool. However, with that came quite a bit of wear and tear on the transmission. On 93 octane or lower you should be good, but for a e85 RAD Lite setup the S-Sport mode flash is a good idea...

I'l miss my super crazy fast spooling RAD Lite, but the 6262 with a 2.2L should make enough power up top to get me over the fact that I'll now spool like 3000 rpm later. lol

 

Sorry off topic but are you running e85 on your new setup? Whats type of power are you making?

 

I'll be going back to 93 for this cause I don't want to outlay the cash for the fuel system needed to run e85 on this new setup. The shortblock just shipped back to me today, so I hope to have at least a running car in a few weeks, and numbers in a month or two. Goal is 500whp on 93 octane.
