3.3TT Kia Stinger 3.3TT SSR Downpipes +30WHP / +26WTQ NO TUNE!!!!! Dyno Runs and Testing

[CoconutRob]

The to vanders I post about are the vanders that supplied the 2 mods I have Both with an exceptional experience and I will continue to post about these 2 vendors and any future vendors experiences that I have These cars are so similar it's good to read Both forms for information. A person was complaining about this vendor so I posted an option to another vendor

Nice work! Looking at the baseline, these cars are underrated already.

It would appear SSR has no interest in coming back to the forums. I emailed Zayn and his response was:

Me:
Zayn,
Just a heads up. I would suggest logging into the forum and chiming in.

Zayn:
Hi Nick,

Are you saying people are seeing different power gains? That’s definitely a possibility at different temperatures dyno setups and test conditions. Through our testing we posted directly on our site what the pipes made on 91 octane on a local dynojet.

Me:
There’s speculation that you lose power with these.
It also seems like SSR abandoned the Kia forum. I personally don’t care if you do or don’t. However some members want answers for their questions.


It seems like SSR will lose the Stinger business in a few months, and the pipes will be harder and harder to get. I'm glad I didn't buy the intake and muffler delete.

lose power may be a strong statement but the gains are much much less than advertised.

I believe you posted a -1 HP result. That is a loss.

I may of read that wrong, but anything that is less than the stock power is a loss in my eyes. Doesn't matter if it's 1HP or 100HP

Where in the powerband these pipes make power, and the results (for both power and sound) using them on a stock car vs. in combination with other modifications, apparently varies a great deal.

Looks like a screw you guys to me.

It is so befuddling to me. A company could completely shut the Stinger market down with a little bit of dev, effort and support.

80% of the vendors that produce hard parts for us are a day away, literally. Companies like COBB, Lund, American Racing; CPE, Vortech, Hypertech.........I could go on forever...have the brains, capability and support to be a one-stop shop for us. We don't need companies that stepchild us like SSR

I hope I am wrong but it looks to me that no one in the US is going to take this car seriously (it's just a Kia mentality) and yes I feel the same about Genesis although the Hyundai Genesis had a good aftermarket. Bu the way I still can not figure out what your problem with me owning a G70 and being on this forum.

 

[Kazz]

Lose power? No. I've seen folks saying something about no gains if you use something like a JB4. Nothing about losing power.

 

[Tonkabob]

Yeah the MP vs Stock dyno did lose 1 or 2 HP peak but made a little more in other places for a +1 average gain. And that is just comparing 2 pulls. That peak drop looked like a bit of a blip. May not reproduce in other pulls but bottom line is the gains appear to be essentially nothing. I bit more torque in the lower RPMs.

@SSR Performance any comments about the power gain discrepancy with your secondary DPs? Any more info or customer dynos you can share showing HP gains to back up your results?

Looks like a lot of potential customers are holding off ordering until more information is provided and we all want to know what’s the real deal. Please let us know anything you can and look forward to your feedback.

They did dyno the car with only the secondary dp deletes it made 30whp/26wtq. With mods they haven’t dynoed it. But I have the ssr intakes and ssr downpipes, and ssr axle back, addw oil catch cans, jb4 map 5 e30 mix, denso spark plugs. I made 445whp on a dynapack hub dyno gear 5 is what we used

 

[Callum]

I hate that I may of causes this thread to spiral from a on topic, product related thread to a @SSR Performance has abandoned the Stinger group, and shows no interest.

I'd say let's get back on topic or close the thread. I think it's a moot point to keep asking the company questions when they have clearly bailed on the board and don't really care.

 

[Drudge]

Such a shame SSR hasn't posted in almost a year. I just can't trust a company that won't take 15-20 mins a week to answer some questions for loyal customers. Guess I'll be going elsewhere to spend my modding dollars.

Didn't they discontinue the entire line of Stinger parts? I'm pretty sure you can't buy anything for this platform from them anyway.

That's what I thought

 

[SKStinger]

A shame. They had some high quality stuff. The welds and finish of the midpipes I have are top notch and their intake design is still the most creative and arguably the best performing design to date.

Oh damn, I didn't even know that. A lot of their stuff is on backorder but i didn't know they just quit cold turkey.
