It's funny how we are more impatient than the OP.

Hope you guys realize that the OP is banned. You might be waiting for a hot minute

I know right?

This was my hope to see work being done on these unicorn X-pipes

jagman · 07-28-2014, 08:10 PM

That sucks

. I was really hoping to find out how a catted Velaforza performed and sounded when paired to the Corsa. I wonder what happened.

He commented on Regular guy being banned a couple times which earned him a ban as well. He should be back in about 2 more months.... hopefully he will have the pipe on the car by then with before and after dyno sheets.

Hmm. Don't want to make that mistake!

I will come back and fill in all the details over the next day or so, but I figured everyone would want to see this (excuse my GoPro handling, still getting used to it). As an added bonus, it now backfires/burbles on occasion by itself, no coding involved *lol*:

Sounds awesome man. Glad to see you're back! Any movement on a blower yet?

Still waiting. Getting ready to buy some acreage in the next few months, so that is playing a factor.

Dynojet. Dyno information here:
www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1003603

And it did 350whp, but it's running *extremely* lean (14.1:1-14.3:1) which I'm almost positive is being caused by the Procede, and is on old plugs, so I'm addressing both next week while the guys there are @ SEMA, and then will redyno on their return.

And no, the meth injection wasn't activated during the runs.

W/// · 10-28-2014, 12:47 PM

Car sounds good. Glad you went with quad resonated xpipe though, because I think it would have been way too raspy with no resonators.

Thanks, but it's not resonated at all

All I did to the x-pipe was to add 1 HJS 100 CEL cat to each side. The Corsa really is doing all the work keeping the volume down, as anticipated.

Ah, sorry, I meant cats. I guess my point is, if it was a straight through x-pipe with absolutely nothing in the back, I think it would have been way too raspy

What are your other mods? Do you have a before dyno run on that same dyno? I would certainly think about ditching my Akra x-pipe for a catted and resonated version of the MRF pipe if it made decent power/torque over the Akra.

a) Procede + Meth. It was disabled for the runs. No other performance mods.
b) Of course, from 6/23/14. I made 327.06hp and 250.96lb/ft.

I dyno'ed 6x yesterday, and in looking at the dyno sheets, I realized that 3 of the dyno files I rec'd from yesterday were from my original dynoes on 6/23/14. I'm going tomorrow to get the other 3, and I'll post a compilation.

Regarding your desire to pick one of these up, there were only 6 made, IIRC. The reason I jumped on it is that s/c'ed M3s, when MRF equipped, make more power than the Akra. As I'm going to eventually s/c, this acquisition is in preparation for that mod.

How is the smell? I picked up a full Velaforza exhaust. Right now I just have the slip on installed and it does drone at 2k rpm. Hopefully I'll get the xpipe installed soon. Right now I'm dealing with a persistent power steering fluid leak after flushing It so I wont get the xpipe on until that is sorted out. I cannot wait

There is a slight smell when I first start it in the morning and am sitting in the garage, but that's to be expected b/c the cats are still cold. After the car/cats warm up, I don't smell anything. I've sat at stop lights w/the windows down and the sunroof open specifically to check that, and everything is good.

Congrats on the pick up! You'll have to let me know how the noise is. Like I said, if it weren't for the fact that the Corsa mellows it out a bit, I don't think I could tolerate it on a daily basis. You'll def have to get the cold start removed. Even w/the Corsa, when I had the cold start still programmed, I was like, "Holy sh*t!" I'd be *pissed* if I were my neighbors *lol*.

Oh yeah, one more key bit of information! There's no droning
