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

[Dochidalgo]

The jun downpipes don’t hang down Like that at the bend. They do hang down 1/2 inch more then stock though.

Well, these shouldn't install in my car neither, then

The it might be less the 1/2 a inch. The stock downpipes are oval a bit that’s why they don’t hang down at all. You might be better off gutting the stock downpipe cats. I’ll look at my car later on when I get home to see how much they hang down it might only be a 1/4 of a inch.

My ONLY critique, and it may be a non issue (time will tell) is the back end of the down pipes hang a bit lower than stock. But I never plan to lower my car, so I’m not worried. Enjoy the pics. Cheers.

Thanks for the info and pics! Have you had any clearance issues yet? I ordered these, but hadn't been able to look at how much they actually hang-down until today. I'm a tad worried with all the steep parking lot entrances/exits in my area. I really do not want to bottom-out on the downpipes. Thanks!

Hey there.

No issues yet, although I haven’t put a ton of miles on the car. Kind of wondering if there is a way to twist them to push those bends up. Maybe the manufacturer can chime in...?

A half of an inch? That's like having a full tank + three 175lb passengers. I don't think a half of an inch will make any difference in most people's commute.

All the videos I’ve seen have audio clipping, or just not great audio. Can you take a few showing the sound?

Oh man, I am worried. My car has installed the Eibach's springs and is lower, so I should not install these downpipes in my car...d@mn

i have ark gt-s lowering springs they sit lower than eriachs springs and i have these downpipes never been any issues. u should more than fine

The ARK springs don't sit lower than the Eibach Pro springs based on the advertised numbers from both manufacturers. But either way you should be fine. I'm planning on running these with Eibach springs and am not worried at all. This car will still sit higher than my old Audi A5 and I didn't scrape with that car.

He has the gt-s springs they are lower then the ark gt-f springs.

Ah ok. Thanks for clarifying. Eibach also has a sportline spring that has a lower drop. I'm guessing those ARK springs are comparable to those.

Well, the house is new as of this summer, and that was an option through the builder. I tried to do it on our last house with the Home Depot kit, but it came out no where near as good. I know the price is per square foot, but I can’t remember what it was...

I hope they read this post, because the e-mail that I sent them in their web page, was not read and answer it.....

I sent an inquiry last night because I purchased Monday. They have no intention to redesign due to limited spacing with the larger piping. BUT, they have been running them on lowered vehicles and have not run into any clearance/scraping issues.

Yes.....maybe i will have to change my nickname or erase my location......

So far, no issues here.

And I take back my previous statement about exhaust sound. The best way to describe it, is driving around with sport mode on all the time. When accelerating, it feels more like a 400hp sports sedan and less like a GT car. But, when cruising, it’s just as quiet as stock, so you get the best of both words, I think. I’ll dig up my old GoPro and try to get some vids.

Awesome, can't wait for the vids and definitely can't wait to get these installed. Thanks!
