i have a 06 tc with a turbonetics kit and the downpipe has a crack in it and the downpipe bolts keep working there way out. one of my buddys told me to go with a 3" downpipe with an open dump tube. is there anywhere where i can get one or if someone already has one they want to sell....lol i am also looking for a tubular style exhaust manifold for the kit too if anyone has any ideas where to get one of those also...lol ...... thanks

 

No problem, call Turbonetics and ask for the revised downpipe. Since I changed mine out over a year ago, I have had no problems.

As for the bolts, that just happens. You can go to the hardware store and try a different set or you can put some red loctite on them and just keep an eye on them.

 

what is the difference between the two?

 

tubular mani is going to cost some loot, trust me i was going to go that route....

 

The new downpipe has a slipfit joint that allows for some movement and also for a better fit.

 

go to R/T tuning have Nate make you a custom downpipe have him put in a flex section and dump tube while your at it...

 

yea ill prob head up there this weekend and ask him about it...... and i already have the slip fit fitting

 

I have a Vulcan turbo mani for sell. Since your going to get a new downpipe.

 

it has to be the same fitment as the turbonetics mani or i would have to do totaly different intercooler pipes
