Default ZPI S-pipes BACK IN STOCK ***NEW DESIGN

As most of you know we changed the design of our S-pipe so that it would work with the Alpha Work headers. We have been waiting on these to come in.

All pending orders will be filled first and then we should have about 30 left in stock.

All new orders most specify what header they are running.

For all of you with pending orders they will start shipping tomorrow and Friday email Keisha@thescionstore.com for a tracking number as they become avaiable.

Ok so why should I pay more and get your s-pipe over the creativecompacts s-pipe that will ship out tomorrow if I order it now? What benefits will I get over theirs?

From ZPI's website:

'' The ZPIracing S-pipe is the best in the business. We have developed this to be the most flow efficient design without the worries of oil overheating as common with our competitors. This S-pipe 2/5” design will flow enough for 400whp on a turbo tC and will provide enough backpressure for N/A applications. ''

Ill be picking one up next week.

Someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure its because of the location were the s-pipe is and were the oil pan is located.

Hmm well I was under my car today but I dont remember how close it was. The stock one DOES have heat shielding though so maybe since this new one doesnt, it might get hotter in that area. Sounds about right but they both seem designed about the same and I wouldnt think a slight change in design could make a huge difference in heat but perhaps Im wrong.

exactly. the s-pipe is very hot and when its located closer to your oil pan, it can actually work to heat the oil pan. which is a very very bad thing

Is there any way to shield the heat away from the pan? Something out there on the market you can just "stick" to the area around the pipe? You could just wrap it but since the pipe is so exposed there would be no doubt that it would be destroyed quickly by trapped moisture. Hmm...
