Best Cheap Downpipes

GTstunna612 · 01-31-2013, 06:13 PM

Looking for some help on DP's not willing to spend too much I was looking into some Racelands ones. Dont want to mess with gaskets, clamps etc. Want something thats a easy bolt on to the stock exhaust. Thanks

I bought PLM from eBay and they are excellent.

3" and mandrel bent no welds.

You have to understand that a pipe is a pipe and that's it. don't get sucked into marketing. Some companies are outrageous. Also 2.5" is also perfect and racelands are very good

I like the racelands for $200 you can't go wrong. Are they 2.5 or 3.0? And how about the welds?

i did originally buy racelands but never fitted them they are 2.5"

you will gain even with 2.5". depends if your later going for a cat back exhaust

also you will need a DP fix either on a tune like Procede etc or an add on fix

I would get the BMS ones over any other option but the AR's

Not gonna be doing any catback exhaust. And I have JB4 think it has a DP fix. Maybe I should get a 3.0 DP...

I just looked at them they dont look to be that good quality but Ive never seen them in person.

I got my VRSF and they look damn good for under $350

Trust me, BMS's quality far surpasses VRSF.

Please do tell, because VRSF pipe that I got a few days ago doesn't look like anything close to bad quality

If you get a 3in DP it'll still taper down to 2.5in if I remember correctly. Unless you get custom FULL 3in DP's that bolt onto 3in pipes.

Lifted07Duramax · 01-31-2013, 08:37 PM

My VRSF get installed saturday and I too will only be doing the downpipes and no other exhaust mods.
JB4
VRSF downpipe
Intercooler
BMS DCI

Done

Please do tell how you arrived at this conclusion.

Everything I've seen/heard would indicate they are very comparable quality wise.
