I want to get a test pipe for permanent use on my 3.2 and I have a bunch of choices. Just wondering if anyone has experience with any of them. here are the ones I have found but if you know about others that you would recommend, let me know.

Choice #1
$169.00 - Bursch Test pipe (all steel)

Choice #2
$189.00 - T-304 Elite Schnell Catalytic Bypass Pipe

Choice #3
$259.00 - Billy Boat 930/911 Turbo Catalytic Converter Test Pipe

I have a Fabspeed. I don't know if it's better than the others, but I like it. I added a second stainless steel bung to run a wideband O2 gauge along with the factory O2 sensor for diagnosing running problems.

let me know if you need a pic of it. I believe they are also Rennlist sponsors.

That one is the most expensive at $300.00. If you have pictures, I would love to see them.

Got mine used for $80 plus shipping. I think it is a bursh.

Make sure it has the O2 bung.

I met a guy at Hershey on the weekend who just put the Bursh in his car. It is metal instead of stainless steel, but I don't drive my car in the rain anyway cause it's a cab and it leaks, so I am not concerned about rust. The guy also told me that a buddy of his got the stainless steel one (not sure which brand) and it split. I am inclined to go cheaper. I would love to buy a second hand one. Where did you find yours?

justinsrx7

Thanks. It looks great. Is your car chipped as well?

Justin, keep looking on the pelican classifieds as well as the ones on here. They pop up now and then. I think I got a fabspeed one for about $125.

Good luck!

Justin, no mine is not chipped. I find myself in some out of the way places such as the coast and mountains. I can't always find the ultra high octane gas.

I think you might get lucky if you place a "WTB" ad in the Pelican and Rennlist classifieds. I bought the tail and I have given away lots of stuff on the classifieds.

Hi Justin, Alex from Fabspeed here. I recommend trying our product out, you will not be disappointed. It is all made from T304 16 Gauge stainless steel, so it will not break or crack and all of our products are lifetime warranted. Anything that is just raw metal used on an exhaust system will eventually crack or just corode and break. I will offer you a $50 Rennlist discount for the catbypass pipe, so it will be $250 because I want you to see why we make the highest quality product out there. Let me know if you have any questions and you can email me or PM if you are interested.
Thanks

I have the DANSK pre-muff now, but in hindsight would probably go with the Fabspeed or M&K. http://www.mkexhaust.com/

I have installed several B&B test pipes and was appaled at the lack of quality. Their products have always amazed me with insufficiant quality, fitment, and sound.
I would go with the Fabspeed. Everything I have seen from them is of the highest quality.
Plus he is right here in this thread if you have a problem.
I normally do not care for the majority of the Bursh products, but their stainless mufflers are not that bad, and their test pipe is for the carrera is just that-not that bad.
