Default OFI downpipes are ready

All of you waiting on the Downpipes they are now done. Stainless works worked there *** off as usuall for me. Thanks Al and chuck at SW. I will go up there and pick them up on tuesday if everything goes good around here. Just need to call jose and get some flanges. Then I will mock them up with the kit here and see how they fit.

Also I have recived a UMI k member to make the 4" dowpipe upgrade available in the coming weeks. See how it goes. I know I could just move the alt, but I would rather not. Like to try and keep all the acc in the stock locations. Will have some more pics later.

Thanks Joel

I havene't figured the price out as of yet sense I didn't complete it yet. I will let you all know when it is finished. Yours will go to the coater by the end of the week.

I have a UMI k-member and there is no way to fit a 4" DP. A 3.5" would even be cutting it. I have 6.0 manifolds though, so maybe that is the difference.

I have a Bmr K-member already so the 3.5" should fit really well...

[QUOTE=tt427ls1]All of you waiting on the Downpipes they are now done. QUOTE]

Joel, I know you probably busy and all but I would really like an update on the rest of my kit. We're going on 3 1/2 months here and spring is just around the corner...

If everything isn't ready to ship I at least really need the crossover so I can start mocking things up. I can't do anything with what I have so far...
