CVF Downpipes Available

[Escape Hatch]

I’m going to wait on downpipes until I upgrade turbos. Doing spark plugs, 170 degree thermostat, and injectors first.

Thermostat, plugs, and tune are my next. I'll run that for a while until I'm bored with 500 whp. When are you pulling the trigger on your next purchases?

Already ordered and have the parts mentioned above in hand. Should have that all installed within next couple weeks. Turbos and downpipe will run about 4k material only so I will probably need a few months to save up some money for materials and labor.
Shooting for 800hp on this build.
Parts already on truck:
AFE cold air intake
Borla type s exhaust
Turbosmart bov
Aftermarket intercooler
Hot and cold intercooler pipes
93 octane tune
Oil catch can

For those that have done this, any more feedback now that it's been a few weeks? Any 'break-in' on sound? MPG increase? Driving impressions?

I have seen a .5 mpg increase, improved sounds, and throttle response.

Thanks. Overall, you feel like it was worth it?

Worth it for me, I’m bone stock, and have no tune.. 25xxx miles and it’s a good raspy on a cold start. 93 octane and the CVF pipe. Zero drone. Turn off music and get to high rpms and you can hear turbos.

Worth the price? Yes, considering exhausts on the market cost more and sound like fart rockets. I’d suggest this 1000x over an exhaust.

Yes, would do it again. No RAGRETS.

They changed these to only through 2023. I confirmed with CVF that 2024-2025 have different turbo connections. No estimated date for availability. Pretty lame

Just picked up a set of the CVF downpipes, looking to do the install myself. I watched the video from Waterfowler41 on YT, doesn't seem too bad.

He doesn't mention anything about new gaskets, but want to make sure I have what I need before tearing everything apart. Was this the gasket you all used?
