XS Power Open dump Downpipe
Hey guys so i decided to take a leap of faith and order the XS Power downpipe off ebay. I must say this thing looks AMAZING! Everything lined up perfectly when i test fitted to map ef2, welds look good, an all around solid looking piece. Also, it can be converted to use an external wastgate.
Just so everyone knows i am not affiliated with xspower in any way. I just wanted to share my experiance with the part. Someone asked where i got it and i had trouble searching it so this is the ebay item#112302678659.

No contoured flange?

At best 5whp on a stock turbo and with those openings looking so small, I don't think this is even worth the money. Never understood why people buy Evo's and then get cheap parts.

As long as it works out for you, I don't see the problem. People on here tend to think only the most expensive parts are acceptable, or only one brand matters. Sure, certain things you need to do your research on, but others not so much. Why spend $1000 on an exhaust pipe when a $300 one works just as great? Keep in mind this is a metal tube, not a precision component.

To some extent things are overpriced (like intercooler piping that copies the factory routing).
Other times, companies do real research and design instead of churning out poor copies without a nice radius cut on the flange. Then they price their parts to cover those costs and still make a profit.

BTW, if anyone here uses Autodesk, theres a great computational fluid dynamics module that you can use to simulate various exhaust components and their effect on flow. I was bored at work one day and decided to see the effect of a 2.5" exhaust, 3" exhaust and a 3" exhaust with a 2.5" flange. It's pretty cool to see a simulation of exhaust flow
