Gauging Interest: GE high flow cat/cat-less & b-pipe systems

Looking to test waters if any GE8 owners would be interested in a GB on:

A) direct bolt-on cat-less/cat-delete system (replaces the cat converter part with a straight pipe)
B) direct bolt-on high-flow catalytic converter system (replaces stock restrictive cat to a high-flow cat)
D) direct bolt-on b-pipe/mid-pipe system with resonator
C) direct bolt-on b-pipe/mid-pie system without resonator

These will be made in-house and proudly in the USA of high quality craftmanship and high grade materials acquired in the US.

My fit will be fitted later this week so we're efforting to post pics of finished product/s early next week.

To cut cost without cutting any corners... these will be made to order.

Here's a few sample of the recent custom works done:



















ATTN MODERATORS: Please moderate thread if needed... thanks!

Sooo... many... questions.. haha

Are those rear mounted twins?

Tilton diff pump putting the oil back in the pan?

Are they planning on wrapping the pipe Y'd off the compressor outlets since it is being straddled by exhaust pipe?

Sorry!

Think of it as a free bump!

Looks good! Where is your shop? PM me if you prefer, we may have to chat! I need some exhaust work done on both cars. I am going to need piping from the downpipe back on both cars. 3" ID 2-bolt flange on the DSM and the Fit will need a transition from a 2" ID 3 bolt flange starting at the downpipe expanding out to a 3" resonated pipe to the back of the car.

we're not looking for a massive group buy... 5 will even do. Anything thereafter will be made to order. Nothing will be sitting on shelves, so no upfront overhead capital will be slapped to customers expense... keeps cost at a minimum and keeps pricing as low as possible

^^ the cat on the GE is relatively very small... Yes a straight-up cat-delete would be cheaper.

This is where the all important benefit of an in-house fabricated part... options are available

All this stuff looks good new....but do you put all that on a regular stock engine? Seems like a lot "BENJAMEN'S'' will be needed for that to be beneficial unless you have some type of SC or TC. If not do they fabricate stuff for the GD? I'm jus' interested...

I think i would be interested in a cat delete and a b-pipe with a resonator.

Would these have all the appropriate bungs already welded in for sensors?

I am not so concerned about cel's because of my new Ultra gauge but im assuming a cat delete will throw one.

Also ThEvilOnE, im not sure if you saw my post on your thread about the hoses you used for your catch can, but I am trying to find some oil-resistant hoses for mine and I was wondering where you bought yours. Thanks

yes, cat-del will come with it.

as for the vac hose, I just went with regular silicone vac. It shouldn't cause much concerns as no constant flow of oil is present.

Evil0ne,

I'd like to see photos of a finished direct bolt-on cat-delete pipe and a mid-pipe system with resonator, if any are produced. For my needs, fitment would need to be a bolt on at both ends, without "tweeks" or modifications required.

Subscribed. Thanks.
