$50 Greddy down pipe

[noonan98turbo]

A friend of mine is selling a used Greddy down pipe for $50. It came off his 2g eclipse. Do you guys think that this is a good price for a used down pipe. Im a newbie and I am not sure what to do or if this is even a good deal. Some feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

If its not cracked its a good deal, jump on that right away.

I might be wrong but I've never heard of Greddy making downpipes for dsms. Are you sure he said Greddy? Might've been an Apexi downpipe...

thats what i was thinking...

Either way for $50 thats a steal

Is it 3' or 2.5'?

Yeah after doing a quick search it dosent look like they make downpipes for DSM's. I wonder why that is?

If it is Stainless Steel then get it. but im not a big fan of aluminum but that is a good deal

Yeah he told me that it was an authentic greddy downpipe that came off his 2g gst. I checked online to try and find a greddy downpipe but i had no luck. so right now im a little confused but im going to take a look at it saturday so i can let you guys know as soon as i see it. as far as the size in not sure yet wether its 2.5" or 3" or wether its stainless steel or aluminum.

if it looks like it will flow good, just buy it.
$50 for any dp that performs better than stock is a deal

+1..

I talked to my friend and he said that he is not deffinatly sure wether its a greddy dp or not. He told me that the previous owner said it had a greddy dp so he beleived him. Its stainless steel and is a 3" pipe. Im deffinatly going to jump on this one and buy it. I guess in the end the brand name doesnt matter to much as long it flows better than the stock pipe. Thanks guys for all your input.

i have another quick question about the down pipe. can you install a dp without having done any changes to your exhaust? i have the stock exhaust so if i buy the dp will i be able to install it or have to wait till i do the rest of the exhaust?

 

[snowborder714]

It would be more worthwhile to wait as you'll have the inner diameter size difference where the downpipe bolts to the exhaust. Especially if it's a 3" downpipe, mating that with a stock exhaust would be a big restriction.

If it's GReddy it will have a GReddy badge on it along with a carb EO nunber. With the GReddy dp (assuming it's GReddy) you would probably keep the stock cat since they are carb legal. I too have never heard of GReddy making a dp for our cars.

 

[BoostedinSoFla]

Ok, Greddy does not make a downpipe for dsms. I'm assuming it's probably an Apex'i GT SS downpipe like the one I have. It eliminates the cat also.

picture would be nice

but as long as it bolts up its good

you can bolt the downpipe on before you get yourself a cat-back exhaust. i installed my Stillen DP onto the stock exhaust. it also eliminates the cat. it did improve horsepower, but it was much better once i got my Greddy Evo 2 cat back on there behind it.

also, im not sure but if this DP is an Apex'i then doesnt that require an Apex'i cat-back to bolt up properly??

 

[noonan98turbo]

Thanks guys for all your input. Im deffinatly going to buy it off my friend. I think ill wait though to install it just so that when i finally get a cat back system I can install the dp with it to make it really worth its wild.

 

[TrboANTsi]

hmm you sure its not a greddy lower intercooler pipe.?

 

[noonan98turbo]

im not sure but i will find out saturday when i meet up with him to see it. he told me it was a greddy dp for a 2g eclipse. so thats all i know as of right now.
