Anyone gone from Turbonetics to t4 up pipes?

Six_Sloww · Jul 22, 2014

My stock up pipes are leaking, I currently have a Turbonetics pedestal and vband to t4 adaptor. This mates up to a box s366.

Just wondering if anyone has made the switch from a turbonetics setup to a one piece t4 up pipe and thought it was well worth the money?

Also what are my options for a one piece stock replacement up pipe? I would rather ditch the egr replacement pipe. I know RCD has a high quality piece, anyone else?

IMO, i'd do the RCD Pipes without the additional egr replacement pipe. Less gaskets to worry about leaking, quality 304 stainless, less of a worry. If ya want a price PM Me. :thumbsup:

RCD or Irate's T4 setups look really nice!

So no one has anything bad to say about the Turbonetics setup? I've never been able to compare. I don't want to spend 7-800 on stock replacements if I could spend 150 more to get the far superior setup... If it is superior

Yes, just PM'd Zach so he'll stop in here and comment. I know he hated his t4 adapter piece and went to full flow t4 pipes.

I'm running Matt's T4 setup, but I never did the adapter route, went right from stock pipes to these T4 pipes. S362 on stock injectors.

OP I switched from the adapter to t4 up pipes and it is a night and day difference. Spool up is much quicker and seems to have more power up top as well. Well worth the money. You won't regret it.

I should've been more clear on my last post..too much coffee this morning. I meant to say a t4 set up like rcd.

^ as stated above, you'll see better performance with the charger using that sort of setup and as i said before less gaskets, potential pieces to leak resulting in a better life of the product and less potential exhaust leaks etc. Plus it will make it nicer if you decide to change chargers to a different t4 based unit down the road. The Turbonetic's works for people, and it worked for a good while, but for the extra little bit of coin, i'd go with a t4 up-pipe setup and toss the adapters and what not.

The adapter didn't seem to work well with the twin scroll housings the single housings are a little better from what I hear.

true T4 divided up pipes will be night and day difference. I run and sell MPD's up-pipes. Shoot me a PM if you want a price.

I have Irate on mine. MPD's are great also

If your getting a great deal on it is the turbonetics kit worth running for a year or 2?

Just do it once, and do it right with T4 up pipes. That's my opinion.

this.....

I ran an RCD adapter with a billet 66, then ran t4 pipes

big difference in spool
t4 pipes are definitely the way to go. worth the extra money

Is it worth waiting?
