$450 for the downpipe? Well, I guess you make it up in how cheap the mani is, right? Didn't you say the treadstone mani+DP would be less total then the ATP mani+DP?
Just so you know, if you would have listened to me, you could have gotten the dezod mani for $381 and their downpipe for $411 with open dump or $475 with the recirc dump. Both of which also come with a 2.5" S/Pipe.

also the pipe is not universal ,the one they make is only for the T3 turbo it comes with, the TC's kit has no option for a different turbo unless you call them up and order it, at which point a different pipe is whipped up and included in the kit.
its not just treadstone...Dezods manifold only fits their down pipe which in turn only fits their S-pipe...
bastiches...

bastiches...most use the fugly 5 bolt "SR20"style outlet flange and the Tneticks use a similar set up or the "round" 4 bolt flange.
like this...common T3 5 bolt flange...
http://treadstoneperformance.com/pro...+outlet+flange
freaky new Tnetics round 4 bolt flange for T4...
http://treadstoneperformance.com/pro...+Outlet+Flange
internal wastegate 3 bolt garret flange...
http://treadstoneperformance.com/pro...ownpipe+Flange
"weirdo" T3 4 bolt flange for TC treadstone kit..."
http://treadstoneperformance.com/pro...scharge+flange
unless i'm wrong(and theres a good chance i am
) this flange will not fit Tnetic turbos or other garrets for that matter...ahh...yeah...what he ^^^ said.

What do you mean "no way you would be paying $800 for dezod?" Oh, and I know aen personally, and he is using the stock S-pipe. Even said so on the last page.

I said i might be wrong and what would be the point of up grading to a larger turbo if the kit still comes with a down pipe with a 2.25" flange mister smart guy?or has treadstone not relayed that info to you yet...

Hey, old men need their sleep!
I think $400 is a little steep, but I dont' htink you get any less. can they just do the hot side since you have the cold side done?
Mugetsu:
When you put it that way, i agree. ALL our downpipes are way overpriced.
