What are the maximum HP capabilities of Europipe Exhaust? Cats included.

Did anyone have restriction problems using this exhaust on high hp cars?

Thank you

 

If you have the power, they have an exhaust. 60-85mm. One of the best out there but pricey.

 

Currently I have the Europipe 2 Quiet, with A30's. Looking if that's the choking point...

 

I had a EP loud (76mm) with cats deleted. I have just about every bolt on mod possible: Gt30 turbos/headers/external 44MM wastgates, 5inch IC's w/ dvs mounted on them, full proto fuel system (dual pumps, rails, lines, 83 lb injectors) full blow throgh intake system, pretty much the works except maybe alphs turbos or the slightly larger Precision turbos that Powell runs.

Until recently I kept my exhaust because I just LOVED the sound. And yes it is top quality. However it was the restriction point on my set up.

By going w/ a full 3inch set up (BBI) my car spools much faster and probably makes another 40 hp.

The 76 mm EP will not be a restriction point until you get over 600 whp.

 

good to know, might have Chris @ USP try his 3" vs my EP 2 Q and see what the difference is when its on the dyno, but love the gurgling sound of the EP

 

a few years back we had one on the car... at 650 rwhp we decided to put one less restrictive... but there are a few options of them so not saying they ALL choke...
best is catless of course..

 

you should be fine for the power you're trying to achieve

 

Thanks, I think so too. Maybe down the road Ill like to turn up the timing and boost so I wanted to make sure...

 

There are too many instances where it's: buy exhaust, remove exhaust, sell exhaust discounted, buy new exhaust. Get the right system for your needs the 1st time.

 

I think your Europipe is costing you a TON of power. Its a low quality exhaust and isnt really worth anything. I'll buy it off you cheap

 

It is unlikely that you'll gain 40 hp with going from a 70mm catless exhaust to a 76mm ( 3 inch ) catless exhaust.

 

Steph,

What I really wanted was a custom 3 inch EP

 

Exactly

 

This seems about right, my K24/18g car trapped 133-34 with
EP Stage 2 quiet. I later tried every possible exhuast in an attempt to
get better sound, more power, less drone, cooler looking bends, etc, etc.

 

If you want max HP just get straight pipes. I will not lie... There is a little drone and the car sounds like a pissed off fork lift... but it will haul ***!
