If you look on the sl's exhaust, its all one piece. You will have to cut before the h pipe. We include special clamps that allow you to mount the new downpipe and old downpipe without welding. The s/cl's no cutting is needed do them having vbands from factory.

If / when anyone purchases the downpipes (I'm considering 200 Cats), pls post your thoughts after you run them. Also, I'm interested in delivery times. Thanks!

I have also ask for those downpipes and maybe the HE exchanger but no answers…
Igor.

I have the H/E and scorpion intakes, really interested in exhaust upgrade stuff, I would like a full 3" setup to get done, open to hearing opinions on with and without cats for sound. It would be great if someone had a sound clip

A retune is not necessary for downpipes

Would there be much gain from going full 3" past the down pipe? What would it cost to get the h-pipe without tips mounted? I would like to keep the factory exhaust for warranty and resale if possible.

We shipped you intercoolers and a flasher(which you were not charged for) with an open balance remaining. We sent you parts without receiving final payment. All we get back from you is pm's and emails for more tune's while knowing a balance is open.

Okay.. I order the parts in March 2013…. you promise me to send them in 4-6 weeks. I paid you what you want at the same time I order them….
The parts ARRIVE in October 2013!!!

After that I have try to order the downpipes with 200 Cel cats (+ HE ??. I have ask you the dimensions=no answers )several times and I have ask for the invoice to…. and at the same time after the 99 Oct tune which you have promise to send…Nothing happened

Juha,

I will also forward you a more aggressive tune for the 99 octane….

We have your downpipe and heat exchanger ready, you still have a balance remaining in order for us to ship.
.

Marcin… is't you? I have send you several e-mails and ask some questions?
I want to know the HE dimensions also?
Can you answer me them first?
I have ask info about my tune also?
We can discuss this directly by e-mail. If you don't have it so here you are juha.tuoma@el….



Marcin.

So after several months you told me they are ready … SEVERAL months??? Okay..
I have only wait after info about the HE measurements so I can decide if I'm gone order it or not at the same time with the downpipes and so on?
Now answers… I have asked for a new invoice to after I decide to order only the downpipes and tune ( which you already promise me).
No invoice… so when you don't answer my questions and you are not interesting to send me the downpipes ( after I have paid them) I decide to leave it… and ask only after the tune because its easy to send by e-mail…..

MARCIN… you now this have nothing to do with the payments… and you now that… I have the money….. and If you still want me to pay something let me know… I'm gone do that. Send me the invoice.
I have always paid my payments… always…
The whole time when I have tried to do business with Speedriven is you don't answer e-mails and you don't have the parts in that time you promise them to be ready for the shipment… I can't pay everything in several months in beforehand if I can't be sure you have them….. weeks and several months have a big gap

and I'm not gone answer this thread again…. even if you answer and write what you want….

Buy Buy…I Must move on and good luck for your business… but I'm not in anymore.

They don't answer emails or phone numbers. If they are so busy they can't communicate with customers why don't they hire a P/A to answer the phone and emails it would avoid so many issues and make them far more money. Please be aware to any potential buyers once they have taken your money they will not talk to you.

I have been waiting about 3 weeks for them to reply to multiple email which I sent to Konrad,Marcin and speedriven to get a tune I have paid for. I have given up so I will go with a Eurocharged tune. They did deliver my parts and they look good but they were 1 month late(also had many issues contacting them during that month)

We've ordered (and paid) for a set of catless downpipes this past week. We were told they could take "up to 3 weeks" to get them done. Will post when we get them.
