Installed Europipe Stage 1

I don’t think there’s much I can say that hasn’t been said already. Stef is honestly the best vendor I have EVER dealt with and the EP sound is awesome! My previous car was C2S and I was running AWE 200 cats with PSE and really loved that sound. When I got the Turbo I was really disappointed in terms of sound and almost regretted getting it. It sucked and was starting to look for another C2S/C4S…that was until I installed the EP! What a beautiful tone it produces!


General observations:
  • Car is more responsive down low/sharper throttle response
  • Boost builds up quicker
  • Car is definitely faster
  • Almost stock like sounding in the cabin while cruising
  • WOT throttle is orgasmic
  • Very noticeable turbo spool during throttle blips and deceleration and if you manage to build up a significant amount of boost at lower RPM it’s even more obvious
  • Morning starts are awesome!
  • Disappointed that exhaust is hidden behind the bumper as it truly is a work of art!
<O
The videos on the web only give you a general sense of the differences between stock, EP and other aftermarket exhausts. The bass and tone of the EP cannot be captured or at least I haven’t heard any videos that do.

Couldn't afford a new EP2 and nobody would sell me theirs! As I mentioned, I needed to do something about the stock sound and was getting close to going back to an NA engine. The EP1 has solved the problem. I would like to try an EP2 someday, maybe if a used one ever pops up.

The price is definitely justified but if you can't afford a new one then wait for a used one to come up. It will be worth the wait. I think they are priced accurately as the craftsmanship is absolutely perfect and I think it takes approximately 1 week to make them.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

It's a great sounding exhaust. I get compliments on it all the time.

Nice to hear that you already enjoy the new pipe. This is the old exhaust of forum member rdrozd, correct? Seems like you've thoroughly cleaned and polished almost everything.
