Thread: Speed Daddy U-Bend Delete Modifications

I suppose it depends on how you cut it but yea Intrigue used the stock piping reread his thread if needed but adding additional pipe if needed isn't difficult if you have someone welding them for you.

Staring and arguing with my uncle about how to make it work, we came to the conclusion that Intrigue used a slip-on flex which has roughly 2 inches of pipe on both sides and provides pipe to slip into the race-pipe/cat. This may have been obvious to some, but not to me. I will now be sending back my weld-in flex and buy a slip-on.

Just saying so that if somebody else reads this they can learn from my mistake.

Good to know. I'm keeping my cat so I'll just use the included straight pipe for any extra I need, and the V-Band flanges will give me a few extra inches as well.

I'm not sure if its been asked before but I've already got a 3" DP, would that work with SDs?

Try Frozenboost.com I believe they sell some SS piping and if you know the angle you'll need it'll be even better. I would make sure you go with SS especially living in MN. Nonesense my DD been sitting in my driveway for the past year I manage to get around lol but I do understand.

I understand that. I wasn't sure if I could use the DP I use and not worry about the SD DP nonsense

Crappy photo, but got it done. Thanks everyone for your help.

Woot. The worry about bottoming out on the bend is now eliminated looks good.

Intrigue would have used a ZZP dual wall flex. I know him and am sure that's what he had on hand.

I did the exact same thing. I tried it a few times with just the flex on the rear of the header, but kept ripping it. So, I added one in the downpipe just like that, and haven't had a problem with it yet.

I used the ZZP dual wall flex as well, I know that's not what I had in my OP, but I wound up getting one and using it. I also wound up needing about 6 inches more of stainless pipe.

^ Not unless your either unhappy with the original location or if you want to add a wideband to it.

No offense dude but if you dk wht it is then you don't need to worry about having one right now. Google it if your curious.

Sure can hell I made my own. Splice and extend a few wires and blam easy as pie.

No, because whats going to read that o2?

A wideband comes with a gauge that is made to convert a specific o2 sensor's readings into real time Air-Fuel Ratio numbers.
