Testing Water: Prodrive oval tip catback setup

GlobalWaste · 07-18-2008, 02:51 AM

Includes a prodrive oval tip axleback (2.5") and a custom tig welded stainless steel midpipe with a "vibrant" brand resonator that is designed to bolt to a 3" downpipe at one end and then to the 2.5" prodrive at the other end.

I'm trying to figure out what this setup is worth and can be tempted to sell it if the price is right.

Do NOT pm me asking to seperate the pieces, they're staying together

All parts are in great condition and it's nice and quiet but still has a noticeable rumble when on the throttle...

Sooooooollllllddddddddddd.

Oh shawmacs, where are you?

8-pointer · 07-18-2008, 03:08 AM

the midpipe and the axleback is not welded together right?

GlobalWaste · 07-18-2008, 03:24 AM

Of course not

I'll get pictures of the setup when I can, it really is a very well put together piece of kit with a great sounding muffler and a very nice midpipe... Which is why I'm hesitant to sell it.

But I've been recently tempted by a new setup...

8-pointer · 07-18-2008, 03:30 AM

hmm...sorry didn't read carefully...
I would only need the muffler since I've TXS Stealth back...
how much are you looking to get for the whole setup?

Yeah, where the hell was I? I would have no use for the mid-pipe though as I am not cash happy enough to buy a 3" DP too

GlobalWaste · 07-18-2008, 02:15 PM

Might as well, then you can go stage 2

Solar · 07-18-2008, 04:14 PM

It shouldn't be hard to modify the midpipe to fit any downpipe if the 3" is preventing people from jumping on this. just a cut and some welding

shawmacs · 07-18-2008, 04:28 PM

Hmmm, will think about it then.

The 3"-->2.5" reducer piece (which is connected to the 3" flange) could be cut off if you wanted and you would require a new 2.5" flange to weld in its place.. not that difficult to do. But since most downpipes end with a 3" flange, I think it's ideal as it is...

What I ment was that if someones buys this and it does not fit, It would not be hard for the new owner to get it fixed

These last couple months have been tight, you ass! My Prodrive muffler budget went into water and sewer utilities!!

ghostfoot7 · 07-21-2008, 03:48 PM

I love that prodrive oval tip sound. Did you think of a price ?

I was thinking about getting a whole package stage 2 AP cobb/ catted dp/ cobb exhaust but when gas prices shot up to 150/L I changed my mind. That whole setup was $1900 before taxes though so about $2200 after tax.

GlobalWaste · 07-21-2008, 03:58 PM

I'm thinking around $500.

You could always sell the midpipe after, as for me, I'm selling it as a unit.

You're right hypa, you might remember that pic from when I posted about my clutch install at loomin's shop... Hence why my driveshaft is laying there as well (I was reminded of your cf piece when putting it aside

)

There is a furious debate going on with my pocket book right now.
