snmjim Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) As for the intake & exhaust system developments to date... For a quick drive by sound clip at WOT & cutouts open: https://youtu.be/639Cx_dxJwo We've fully developed & provided DIY instructions on the following for the subject vehicle: - R&D the CAI - Corrected the restrictive IC cold side boost tube and selected the fabricator - ID a bolt in Hi-Perf IC & fabricator - ID a quality Turbo modification source for maximizing the stock Turbos - ID a method to maximize the stock exhaust Sys - ID an adjustable BOV & source - ID an eco boost specialty Tuner One thing remains to complete the maximizing of the intake & exhaust system.....wait for it..... DOWNPIPES..... We're currently in the process of working with fabricators to develop & fabricate Catless & Hi-Flow Cat downpipes... The Pic is of a new set of stock pipes loaned to us by Ford as templates, hopefully we can return them unscathed or they'll no longer be free... Standby for updates..... Update (11/29/2018): The National Speed Project Team has reviewed historical HP & torque gains on other 2.7 TT eco boost applications using Cat-less & Hi-Flow Cats and has reached the consensus that value added for HP achieved Cat-less will be the way to go for this project along with a retune. For heat management, instead of heat wrap NS has been having great success using special ceramic coating, with the added benefit of color choice... Our intention of providing a set of Ford OEM pipes to the fabricator is to enable the fabricator to generate specifications and/or templates in order to reproduce these on demand for those of you who may be interested in a set. Update (01/15/2019) National Speed has determined that 3" downpipes will not work due to the extreme U-turn the front downpipe must make, therefore we're working with 2.5" pipe of which National Speed stated that with stock Turbo housings this should not have any negative impacts on power gains. It is anticipated that the pipes will be heat treated by end of Jan beginning of Feb. In the mean time SpecialK has been designing the remainder of the exhaust system to meet my stock sound/sleeper requirements but with full power capability. So he came up with this awesomely creative concept design that we've settled on (Ref Pic)...? Update (03/21/2019) Project stalled and was transferred to a fabricator in Maryland to facilitate better oversite & consult. Update (04/09/2019) Fabrication is halfway done and soon to be reassembled then track & Dyno testing begins. In support of the community we have the fabricator making templates in support of anyone who would be interested in a set of Catless downpipes or Hi-Flow Cat downpipes, for those that elect to comply with emissions, in a 2.5 size pipe. This way you can easily order the pipes and not have to give your car up for fitment and development time & costs. Therefore, you benefit by getting lower cost and no wait! Update (04/25/19) Fabrication & coating complete!!! Assy process begins...??? Update (05/04/19) Assy complete with no codes & surprising results so far on the base line BCB initial Tune. Tuning refinement has begun... Stay Tuned, more Pics to come... Edited June 3, 2019 by snmjim 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing i want you to ensure is that the flange diameter stays true throughout the entire pipe and does not taper! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special_K Posted April 10, 2019 Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 Slow and steady we go, we chose 2.5" due to it being a solid jump over the stock 1.75" and for space purposes. will update everyone on gains and the like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tig cats in, how would I get the pipes? Also, are there going to be O2 bungs etc? Hang in there, we're 1-2 Wks from completion for design development, fitment, fabrication and install. The options will be: - 2.5 downpipes with Hi-Flow Cats - 2.5 downpipes without Cats - With o2 bungs - Ceramic coating heat management in a selection of basic colors Notes: - The pipes will come tapered to bolt up to the stock exhaust Sys. - A special order will be required to have it match up to a complete 2.5 exhaust system. In a effort to reduce fabrication lead times it would help if we could get some idea of those interested so please chime in here soon...

Close to the edge Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Let me ask this because I ran into it in my camaro and my GTP. When I ran HF Cats, my check engine would trip. Is there going to be a fix for this? Back then I would have to run 02 simulators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back then I would have to run 02 simulators Considering no one has yet to try any type of modified downpipes on this platform, that we know of, we'll soon find the real answer to that question. For those who don't know...there are a few ways of dealing with the o2 issue of which we prefer the following in presented order of preference: - Identifying the best o2 location/placement - Identifying the best o2 defouler/spacer for your engine make & model that will not throw codes - Deleting the o2 from the Tune 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Sweet! Definitely opt for the Cerakote to a) save your PTU, and b) to improve longevity esp in rust belt states. Can you get the coating in multiple colors, or "any color as long as it is black"? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been out of the loop for a while but very happy to see you have continued your hard work with the mods. I’d probably be in to buy one but if I’m going to do that, I want to get a 2.5” catback to go with it. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
