i was searching through the internet looking for the cheapest price on a thermal exhaust and the lowest i found was about $580 shipped. can anybody beat that? and also what downpipe are people running with the thermal setup? thanx for any help :thumb:
 
That's probably about the cheapest your are going to find it. I was using the Buschur Racing 2.5 downpipe and test pipe with mine. It worked great, and the same setup is still on my roomates car.
 
That's about what I bought my Thermal for. I would say just buy it from whoever that is as long as it's a reputable dealer. I have ran both the 2.5" Buschur Racing downpipe and the Megan Racing 3" downpipe. Creeps a ton with the Megan pipe on there; never had a problem with the Buschur pipe though. Hopefully some more port work will solve that.
 
Yeah, I'm pretty sure my roomate paid about the same price from AMS. I believe that's the cheapest place he could find it.
 
I'm using an Extreme Motorsports 3" dp & 3" high flow cat with my Thermal. But that setup is BIG $$$
 
buy a tsudo downpipe, they bolt up because both neckdown to mate with the stock cat "thermal & tsudo"

you can buy a tsudo downpipe from ebay for around 120 or so. :D
 
That's about what I paid for mine...about 3-4 years ago. I'm running a 3" RRE cat elim. downpipe. Came with the flange to weld to the cat back where I cut the neckdown off. Sounds noice! :thumb: When it's running
 
hey guys thanx 4 the help. the megan and thermal=creep? anyone else know about this? it was between the tsuedo and the megan, which would you guys prefer with the thermal? :confused:
 
Hahnracecraft had a sale about 2 years ago for thermal RnD exhausts in the high $300 range. I was pretty pissed since I just bought one 2 weeks before that for $565 shipped off a horsepowerfreaks auction.

I use a VRS o2 elim dp, it had to be taken to an exhaust shop to have the neck down chopped of and weld on my 2.5 race pipe.

I'm using the extreme/thermal setup on my 1g and it is big $$$. But in my opinion it is worth everypennie...never had any problems with it and it performs like a dream.
 
I would buy a 3" Thermal again in a heartbeat. But the way its made, I'll never have to worry about that again. Still can't get over the topend increase over my old Greddy 60mm catback, driving on the expressway is fun now.
 
you prob already bought ur exhaust but Thermal and RRE 3" cat elim. SOUNDS GOOD, i gots it in my car and for both i spent about $700 i got a great deal on my thermal from a local shop around my area $450 and RRE downpipe $250, but i had to customize my Thermal cat back exhaust since it neck down to bolt up to stock CAT, just chopped that neck of and welded on a 3" flange from RRE.
