Is there not much of a gain using them I assume? It's funny that on the VIII's and IX's there were very good gains with the LICP and with the X's it's the top.

 

From what I know it's all about the UICP on the X. I've replaced both on mine but I did the lower ones as part of an FMIC upgrade, just to take any doubt out of the equation.

 

i believe there are no gains from the licp on the stock turbo atleast. Its just personable preference to change it.
As for the difference between the 8 and 9 to the ten; on the 8 and 9 the turbo is in the front of the motor and the licp comes off the turbo(hot pipe). where as in the 10 the turbo is in the rear of the motor and the uicp comes off the turbo.

 

it is different on the X, you dont gain as much as you did on the CT9A cars. Same with a down pipe.

 

What uicp do you guys like??? I am lookin to change my stock uicp out.

 

Technically, the 8/9's and X's both change the same pipe. It's just that on the 8/9, the turbo outlet feeds the LICP, where as on the X, the turbo feeds the UICP.

On an 8/9, the turbo is in front of the motor, where as an X is behind. It's a whole new engine / setup.

But we both change the "Hot Pipe".

 

totally agree with this guy

a "hot pipe" is a hot pipe not matter what you call it....on the 8/9 the LICP is the "hot pipe" because the way the turbo sits...on the X the UICP is the "hot pipe"

 

yeah, I guess I never thought of it that way.
