Okay I have had several people ask me about mandrel bent downpipes for around $200 shipped. Well here they are. These were all prototyped on a B13 with an SR20DET and made by VRS. If you are interested in this, want in on the buy, or want more information please don't hesitate to ask.

Prices are as follows :

$205 shipped for aluminum
$255 shipped for stainless steel

Here are pics. The car shown that this particular downpipe is on is a '94 SE-R owned by NoClassic. The power increase was quite significant over the 2.5" downpipe he had on previously. He can attest to this :

Guys, this is a great deal. Just from my seat of the pants dyno this DP made a good bit more power than my 2.5 crush bent pipe that cost almost the same. The fitment is great and all welds are very clean. BUY THIS DOWN PIPE.

He shoots, he scores! Once again, Miguel turns the Sentra Specialty Exhaust market into his Personal Bitch! I wish I had a turbo just so that I could have one of these fine pipes installed. Damn. Now if he only had B14 and P10 pipe assortments like he has for B15s and B13s, he could rule the world.

I'm very interested in one for a B14 with a GTI-R setup!!!!!! Let me know if its even being considered. thanks

SupaBlackNX2k

Im Very interested...will you be accepting paypal? Also, how soon could we expect it after payment? Thanks.

This downpipe will fit fine on a B14 with a T28. Miguel does not, however, have a cat-back exhaust for B14s that I'm aware of. Call him and tell him you want a cat-back, too!.

pdr

Yes .. I accept paypal (you will have to pay the 3% charge). I'm gathering buyers right now, and shipping time will depend on whether they have been made or not. I will be on here frequently keeping everyone updated.

pdr

haha .. I'll mention something to him about that.

vpaztecred

i want to buy one but i wont have the money till the tenth of dec. . is that cool allso will it fit a t25?

Yes..it fits. We will most likely still be selling these then, too.

Keep me updated..thanks

97SE-R C2

I assume it bolts to the stock Cat too. Are you positive that it fits my setup with no problems? That would rock. I am interested for sure.

pdr

Yes, it does. What exactly is your setup? I can't give you a definitive answer without knowing. :p

97SE-R C2

97 200sx SE-R with a GTI-R manifold and stock T28. I am running a Jay whitley 3" Test pipe that bolts in like stock.

CowboyDren

Yes, it will fit your setup just fine. To sum:

• Fits B13, B14, B15, P10, and P11s originally fitted with SR20DE engines.
• Fits Bluebird, Avenir, and GTi-R manifolds.
• Fits T25 and T28 Turbos.
• Works with stock cat placement (for best results, you want a 3" cat, but stock 2.5" cat is also fine).
• Has [what appears to be a] 2.5" bell at the flange (for bolt clearance) immediately flaring to 3" mandrel elbow for optimum flow.

How far off am I, pdr?

Nice product. I wish I could get one. From the pics, looks like it hangs down just a little bit too low for my taste. I need a DP that hugs the upper oil pan more, and the bend can't be lower than the cross-member.

I have a similar-shaped 2.5" DP w/ a nice-sized dent, so I know that this DP might do the same thing.

Damn me and my shortened strut body suspension. Otherwise I wouldn't have this problem.

The answer to that question may be that Miguel's system's level of perfection. See how the elbow flares down to meet the flange? That's the best way to make a T25 or T28 go into a downpipe, as the outlet is barely over 2.5", the bolts are difficult to get to, and you want to open up the diameter as quickly as possible after that. You could do the same thing with 2.5" pipe through the bend, but that would impede flow.

The only way to make the downpipe have more ground clearance would be to eliminate this bell, which can't be easily done and keep the flow characteristics of the pipe. You could mate a 3" pipe direclty to the turbine/wastegate outlet, but that would be turbulent because of the size differences mentioned above. The only other option would be to use a smaller-radius bends in the 3" pipe, but I'm not sure that's possible (it already appears to be a 3" radius, which IIRC is the smallest you can do with 3" exhaust tubing).

Okay; we found a flaw. Miguel over-engineered it.

97SE-R C2

I had an AEBS header so I'm not worried about clearance, rather used to the lack of it

pdr

Haha..Thanks, 'Dren. I think you're right on.

Clearance is one of the issues that was discussed, but again this 3" dp is geared towards the performance crowd. The car I personally tested it on was dropped 2" so it did come close to the ground..I figure you guys w/ stiffer suspension and less of a drop wont have that many problems.

This is a quality downpipe. I have seen several other makes and this one is by far the best, and only about $20 more.

ohhh yummie!!! Me wants one!
