Very nice bud.. But £250s way to steep for me I'm sure it's the going rate but not for me spent way too much lately.. Chris what you going todo about your AFR bung?

22-12-2012, 19:50
looks good :agree:

what diamater are they? 2 1/2 inch?? if so I could be tempted, but a T28 flange would be required

would a bulk order have any impact on reducing the overall cost??:D

:agree:... i would of thought if you put a price tag of £170 plus postage etc youd get many more sales, still im sure theyre worth it and im not knocking the product in any way but id want to see the product in real detail for the £250 inc price tag.

groky
22-12-2012, 19:57
yes they are 2 1/2 and s/steel flange and lambda bung.

yes if there was 5 people intrested could do them for 200+p&p.

I could very well be interested in one with bung and a t28 flange for the blue meanie

I'd be ready for one at the end of January most likely.

Be nice to see them under £200.. The quality of the bms downpipe was amazing and the original price was £140 delivered I think for my first, then I got one of the second batch at the same price. The batches later were around the £180 mark with the group buys and selling for more to non club members. Then big jims were £150 but less pretty hence they sold but not in waves like the bms.. Then cgb got him to make him some selling for £200..

For £200 I'd need it looking as epic as the bms, with a lower price it would roll a batch of 10 easily as then 10 excess would sell on eBay for more..

Remember us club members are tight cnuts, we had koni group buys kicking about a year ago with some hints of prices around £400.. No interest.. Then joe blogs phones them up and scores a price of £280 :devil: 10 members + are chucking money at them.

These are something them members want but they don't just open there wallets, you have to tickle there balls first.

Am in need of one of these. But not at that price! Plus can the bung be put up to just after the bend of the turbo rather then near the bottom?

Thing is this lad is makeing them in his spare time how much is an enlarged elbow and in stainless and an enlarged stainless down pipe? i am well happy with the price and quality i shall fit it on tommorow and will take photos and a big thanks to liam

groky
22-12-2012, 23:05
i'm sorry that everyone feels they are rather expensive but it was 5 years or so ago when boris and big jim started making them but the price of materials have increased some what since. If i could get the materials cheaper i could by all means make the pipe cheaper. As for the moment £200 for 5 or more would be as low as i could go and £225 for singles.

p.s if any has anyone contacts for materials that may be cheaper than where i get mine i can make enquiries. Which will only make the pipe cheaper.

Borris made them in own time too. Material prices may well differ these days though? From then to now although irrelevant copper price is at least triple

I bet borris had alot more contacts and bulk orderd at trade prices makes a huge diffrence plus loads of equipment makeing it quicker and easier i really thought price was great

i do shop around for cheaper prices but the flanges i have laser cut and dont buy them of the shelf and get the tight mandrel bends from a supplier and the large swept bend bent out of a lengthof pipe so please dont think that im not trying to cut out the midlemen.

It would be nice to actualy have yours side by side with the bms/boris ones. Both look nice, another one cropped up a while back as a group by not by boris and I really didn't like it. ( no offence to the maker)

yes the lambda boss can be placed any where you require just its hidden out of sight where there is plenty of room. Also i read that afr sensors operate best 30cm from the turbo. correct me if i'm wrong just what i read.

I heard similar, hence the standard position of hole/bung.... Scoffs your man for that I'd imagine.

Off subject groky, but you seem handy, maybe look at making manifolds etc exhaust and bits for EFI ;)

i have made manifold recently i'm currently making a manifold for r5 scotty for his f4r conversion, but on hold at the moment until i get my engine out of my 5 and out of my clio so i can mock the collectors position. not taking the engine out just for that thought both engine need work doing.

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

It's nice to see people are still intrested in the one-peice downpipe I created a year or so ago, at the time it was enjoyable making them.
On the last batch I made the prices of the laser cut flanges had increased, and the d/p price reflected that, the cheapest I could make them now would be around 160/170.
That's taking into account the laser cut flanges, mandrell bent pipe, lambda b+b, p+p, time taken to make ect.. Unfortunatly I can't sell them for any cheaper.

Anyways, it seems http://www.rtoc.org/boards/member.php?u=765 (http://www.rtoc.org/boards/member.php?u=765) is ready to make a few using the jig from the 'msm' day's, sound's intresting as the one I saw looked nice. Im not in a rush to make any more so see what Jim is saying. (including pics/price?) If there any good im sure it will sort out the few people wanting a downpipe upgrade.
And is Scott K making some more 3" downipes?

Guys I can tell you stainless steel had gone up on price recently, I was at piper the other day and they said there having to up there prices, they had sourced a cheaper supplier for the same quality grade steel.. But that steel rippled as it was a fraction thinner... :(

£200 for a group buy ain't a bad price...

GTphil
23-12-2012, 12:03
I can't really see the issue with the price to be fair, if the quality is good then why not pay the guy for his skills:confused:

After all if it was that easy then we would all be knocking up our own versions, half the reason the other guys stopped bothering making them was because it wasn't really worth their time and effort:disagree:

imo we should be willing to make it worthwhile for someone to make these rather than trying to knock down the price:agree:

I could not agree more with Phil everyone wants one, but dont want to pay the price for one if i was making them i would put them up at a set price and that would be it i think that is a good price for the gains you will see and if they are a good quality then that to is a bonus. I know it didnt warrant big jim making them when he did as he was seeing almost no profit from them so come on guys dont be tight and start ordering one :agree: i would but that wouldnt fit on mine ;)

As said last night quality looks good. And materials must cost more to then, and he needs to cover his time money wise. :agree:

23-12-2012, 16:38
so long nd short of it people are happy to pay 200-225??? delivered??? like jrp said ,its not only materials its time nd labour too.

so how many people are genuinely interested??? a list maybe?? then liam may be able to sort a batch??? that is if he wants to do it. :)

Who is wanting one list here and we will go from here, for now I will only make them for club members anyone out side the club will simply have to wait.

I will require £50 deposit each as not to much to lay up front and to much to lose if you drop out. I will be laying more out on each one so if no deposit no downpipe.
Also if each person could send a gasket of the turbo flange they will be using will save alot of confusion as there are several different patterns. Gasket will be returned with you downpipe.Thanks groky.

I would prefer as there are a range of rear housings being used with the std elbow

Can we please have an address to send it?

06-01-2013, 19:22
There's no need to send a standard gasket I have one but other than the standard flange pattern send a gasket of the flange pattern that you are using so I can get it right with no amendments as I could make them all with a 5 bolt flange and one of the 5 will be different.

27-02-2013, 20:43
Elliot has notice that there is a fair bit play between the downpipe and the exhaust crossover pipe, and was concerned whether this was right this is because I have left the two bolt flange loose to be positioned where ever is best for you guys which I shouldn't have done as the flange on the crossover pipe is also loose causing the excessive movement at the joint.

I would like to sort this on the others that people have received at my expense. please get intouch
