UPR X-pipe

[jasonc32amg]

I was going to get pullied this weekend but the shop's puller is out of commision:mj: Instead I was thinking about a UPR o/r/ xpipe.

Is this a plug and play system as far as the (4) o2 sensors go? I have a predator so I can turn the rears off. I just want to make sure before I pick it up that there are no install issues I need to be aware of.

Nope, installed is cake and the fit is perfect. No leaking problems or nothing, excellent product to go with!

Excellent, thanks for the feedback:thumbsup:

yup, awesome pipe. I just put the dynomax 3" on and man is this car alive now. I love it.

Cool... I have the magnaflow catback and the car is still quiet as hell...

Go for it. I love my UPR X pipe. Great price and perfect fit. Sounds awesome also. Black03

It is a great x-pipe for the price ! Here is a video of mine in the dyno if you want to get an idea of what it sounds like with a magnaflow catback . Ignore the tire spin on the dyno , this sorry ass place doesn't know how to strap a car dwon tight enough .

awesome piece, fit good, price is awesome.

Whats the advantage/disadvantage of the UPR vs. say Magnaflow X-pipe?

 

[jeffsvt]

Advantage is price $149.95 .

 

[Black03Poison]

And there must be some disadvantage based upon simple economics... and that is what? The material the pipe is made from? I'm also speaking of the catted-xpipe and not the off-road.

 

[jeffsvt]

UPR only makes an off road X-pipe .

 

[Black03Poison]

Ah there we go. Thanks.

Work smarter not harder.....


I live in alaska, some of the shitty roads known to man, worst conditions, and ive had my UPR X on for over a year with no problems, no rust etc. Good enough for me.....

Broke 7... Cool avatar pic can you post the larger size? Cant really tell but it looks like a hard 1-2 shift??

Appears that with some applications, the off road X actually causes a decrease in power due to a reduction in boost because of less restriction. Amazon Racing has seen this with the dyno testing of several Terminators. But, the reduction can't possibly be significant and they sure will bring the noise level alive.......

Thanks for the link, that sounds sweet. I picked the pipe up but it looks like the shop is going to have to relocate the rear o2 sensors. On the x-pipe they are too far forward... I can't wait to hear it.

As far as any reduction in boost, I'll compensate for that with a pulley

I believe that he is actually going about 70 to 80 on that sideways shot...lol

ricksvt.. i love those blackouts on the rear.. just wish they werent so expensive! bad a$$

 

[jasonc32amg]

Got the pipe on today...turn out the 02 sensor locations were correct

The car sounds sweet and revs out very nice. I mau have lost a little low end torque but it revs much more freely now. For the money this has to be the best o/r pipe going...
