"Polished Stainless Side pipes"

[Calbullet]

Terry, did you have to lower the engine mount to install the sidepipes or did you have to lower and leave it lowered to fit??

I like mine from www.buckshotracefab.com

Here they are with 17 inch wheels on the car.


Here's how they look in motion with 2100 ft air.

Here's a recent dyno chart
475.3 wheel HP

If you get some I should mention the new pipes required an additional 3 jet sizes up primary and secondary to maintain the same air fuel ratio as the Superformance side pipes.

I had to leave it lowered. It was only one side and it was the beefier Olthoff replacement.

I understand the Stainless Steel Specialties drop the tips very slightly to focus the increased sound away from the driver/passenger.

Hope that helps.

I have the removable muffler section. The muffler type referenced by the builder was 3" though it would be difficult to measure an exact internal dimension given there are rows of louvers inside. The internal louvers point forward, no packing. I like the turn out to be level to ground, but if you wanted you could point them around in alternate directions.

I can tell you for certain the Buckshot Racefab side pipes are faster and they are louder. I don't think it's possible to use the word "best" for anything under the sun, though I'm satisfied with the product and I'm very picky and analytical.

I took a number of months to thoroughly understand the impact of the side pipes from many perspectives. For testing I used corrected numbers from load bearing dyno, inertia dyno, G-tech Pro Competition with computer acquisition software and trap speed corrected to sea level for comparison between the Superformance and Buckshot Racefab.

May not be an issue for you since you have a BB vs my SB. My mount was actually cut, shortened and rewelded.
