Do we get any discount on piper exhaust ?

[DavieBow]

Does anyone know if we get any forum membership discount from piper on their exhaust systems , just about to purchase their downpipe and exhaust but at the best part of £1k it would be nice if i could get a little off the price first .

cheers

We don't have any discount on the Piper exhausts like we did when Geoff got us a good deal on the PECO group buy. But you could always phone them and ask for a discount

I have had 3 systems (ie PECO, Cybox and Piper) on 3 different M100s and think that Piper is the best for engineering, fit, noise etc.. It is the dearest of the 3 of the systems but worth it in my opinion.

By the way, where do you get the "best part of £1K" from ? Are you factoring in the turbo downpipe with ceramic coating ?

I've got an SE but was gonna go for the whole system from the turbo back so thought i'd need the turbo down pipe(£320 -£450) as well as the 2.5" system (£580) .

I've got a mountain chip in it plus gonna get the turbo re-conned and waste gate ported, so with all that in mind i thought it best to go for the whole system to get maximum benefits, is that not the case ?

You will most likely need the waste gate ported as you have the Everest Chip and are going for the 2.5" system. Not sure if you'll need your turbo reconditioned though. Is it working OK now or do you have problems ?

The turbo is fine as far as i know , but i'm doing a full strip down / detail and nut and bolt rebuild anyway , so stuff like that i just think you may as well do anyway as i'm going to that level , i know some may see it as a waste of money and if it ain't broke don't fix it , but i do this kinda thing anyway , both professionally and personally , so just for my own piece of mind i'll know that i put it all back together the best it possibly could be .

I've got the Piper downpipe I believe it was a group buy at the time, I also have the Everest chip and have ported the waste gate.

[DavieBow]

What size is it best to port the wastegate to ?

Nae probs

But have a look at HJ's post above. Looks like 21mm might be more suitable rather than the 20mm quoted on Wikilec ?????????

Yeah I read through it all and thought 21mm would be the better option

Re title, I asked the question today and :

Thank you for your recent enquiry via our website.



We do not keep items in stock, all exhausts are made to order.



We have recently reintroduced the LEC discount as it being asked about more frequently.



LEC members will receive 10% discount on all Lotus exhaust products.



Many thanks & Kind regards,

Well done Steve. I can thoroughly recommend the full Piper exhaust if anyone is looking for a sporty sound

[Steve A]

I'd be interested in what Piper systems forum members have,
Especially if they have the Piper 2.5 down pipe

[Simon_P]

Well done Steve!

I have 2.25 with sports cat, nice but civilised exhaust note, they put a lot of efort into understanding our needs and providing options - still pleased with it 10 years on and would definately buy again.
