Much larger inner diameter for improved air flow, 62% higher!
- Made of 70mm mandrel bent aluminum pipes.
- Smooth flow cast collector part.
- Smooth internal surface for best air flow.
- Comes with high quality silicone hoses and accessories for installation.
In the beginning of the development process of this product we spent a lot of time thinking what would be the preferred way to build a Y-pipe and here is the result of our conclusions and development process! Our pipe have both a very good flow rate and a low weight which is accommodated by composing mandrel bent lightweight pipes with a high quality 3D freeform designed cast joint between them. Onto the cast part we then welded CNC-machined connections for bov and breather hoses.
This construction adds a lot of performance but only a tad of extra weight. do88 Performance Y-pipe weight 1,52 kg (3,35 lb) OEM plastic pipe weight 1,38 kg (3,04 lb) and competitor cast performance pipe weight 2,76kg (6,08 lb)!
The pipes are then finished in a high quality powder coat that makes them look as good as they perform! You can choose between the more discrete semi gloss black and a fresh silver metallic finish.
The kit also includes 2 high quality custom designed silicone hoses to fit the larger do88 performance intercoolers. You will need different hoses to connect to the OEM intercoolers.
When it comes to air flow performance our Y-pipe totally outperform the OEM Y-pipe by 62% increased flow at the same pressure drop!
Be aware of that the OEM parts was designed for the power level the car was built for originally. A power increase may cause your stock Y pipe to hold back the power of your engine. So even on an engine with a software tune the do88 performance Y-pipw will give a performance increase over the OEM Y-pipe!

I would agree likely no power increase whatsoever if you just throw this on a stock car. However, with a tune, its my understanding that this is good for 10-20 HP (this is secondhand word of mouth but from a top respected tuner). When you add other mods and step up to bigger turbos, the Y-pipe becomes even more important, as the stock part becomes the bottleneck. I would not buy this as the fist mod for your car, but only after you have at least flashed a tune.In fact the silicone connector hoses this comes with are for the bigger aftermarket intercoolers.
My car is a Techart with bigger turbos and intercoolers, I'm surprised they never installed a Y-pipe on it. I'm interested but it's tough financially at this moment, hopefully if if still around in another 2-3 weeks

Im surprised too...you ought to get a significant gain with this Y-Pipe in your situation. What can I say...first person who says "ill take it" gets dibs.
