MOTORDYNE ART Pipes - Review

^ With a Y pipe I had a small amount, with a CBE I assume it will be just great, GZ3 sounds happy ;-)

The ART pipes come with a 2 year material and craftsmanship warranty.

Great Tony, I am extremely happy with the pipes, but just this one incident I have seen locally so was a bit worried. Though just to clear to everyone your customer service was great

to offer replacement to the guy from Dubai.

Do we need to make some kind of bracket to avoid any breakage or just use it as it is

, as was thinking of getting some weld done

Coming to warranty its for international as well right? any conditions linked to it? like can use with any catback right

No change is needed. We found the first 4 units made were accidentally fabricated with 0.049" wall SS304 tubing instead of the required 0.065" wall SS304.

When we get them back in stock We'll send out a proper set.

As far as connection with other catbacks, I can't say with absolute certainty. It will depend in part on the design and fitment of the CBE connected to it. We can however guarantee full compatibility of all Motordyne parts with stock and other Motordyne parts.

So it means there wont be any warranty as I am using mine with Invidia CB exhaust with ART pipes. Only thing is guys here are pushing to get some brackets and if I have the assurance that warranty is there then its a peace of mind for me for the next two years

I am going for a tune next week so will post some dyno numbers

Motordyne · 02-11-2011, 08:58 AM

The invidia exhaust is fine with the 2 year warranty, but don't make any modifications to the ART pipes.

mmm i kinda want a pair myself now...

Hey Tony, was there a downside to putting a support bracket or gusset between the side branch and primary pipe? Seems like it could only help and for a minimal cost.

So I'm sure my HKS Hi power TI should have zero issues with fitment

I think the only issue will be the people stopping you to ask what you are running.. it will sound sick

Weather it be due to excessive thermal gradients or stress risers, I've seen a lot of brackets of different kinds put onto test pipes and HFC's.... and they are notorious for cracking or breaking.

Sometimes its better to simply allow structures (or pipes) to be a little flexible as opposed to rigidly braced.
