I have my novitek downpipe. Wondering on install time and the difficulty level? Hope to get some feed back thanks dudes!
This will be paired with my EC v2 intake and full straight pipe exhaust with the EC. Stage 2 tune!
Shout out to Eurocompulsion for being awesome and helping me out with this new build!
I have a custom downpipe and install took very little time. If you think your exhaust is loud now then the catless will bring up a notch. The tradeoff is the performance gained from being catless for turbo motor. You will gain in the mid and high rpm.
Local fabricator did the install and the build. Access wasn't an issue.Did you install this yourself? How was it trying to access the downpipe near the turbo? I didn't pay any attention to the downpipe when I did my exhaust.
I just ordered the Novitec downpipe yesterday. How did your install go? Looks like I need to ship my Phase 2 off to Eurocompulsion to tune out the CEL.I have my novitek downpipe. Wondering on install time and the difficulty level? Hope to get some feed back thanks dudes!

Please keep us informed how all this goes, both initially and down the track. I'm sure many are interested.I just ordered the Novitec downpipe yesterday. How did your install go? Looks like I need to ship my Phase 2 off to Eurocompulsion to tune out the CEL.

My 4C with Novitec DP n Corsa exhaust
How much lowder compared to the stock race exhaust ?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VLx79XpfOrc

It’s pretty loud at wide open throttle and much louder than the stock race exhaust. I’ll post some more videos so check it out in my YouTube channelHow much lowder compared to the stock race exhaust ?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VLx79XpfOrc

How bearable is when cruising with around 90-100 mph on highway?
Thank you,

I just did mine today. Indeed that is the hardest part. We removed the exhaust manifold intake & Air intake from the top side which gave access to the black shroud that is sorta in the way. For whatever reason, the V-band bolt and nut are on the top side. Putting the catless downpipe in is cake and there is much more room to work with. Re-install the V-band at the bottom for easy access to the bolt. 10mm I believe.Anyone have tips for removing the downpipe v-band clamp? Everything down wind of the turbo has plenty of room to work with, I just can't get to the v-band clamp. Maybe I'm missing something..

Oddly enough, that black cooling shroud is the only thing holding me back right now. There is a hardline (guessing AC?) that is routed in a manner that covers the top of the cooling shroud preventing me from pulling it off.I just did mine today. Indeed that is the hardest part.

Yeah its home stretch from there! I don't recall anything in the way of the shroud. Just the 2 air intake hoses I thought?

Once that's out of the way, I don't see the rest of this job taking more than an hour including reassembly.
