Hey everyone,

QUOTE

Full 3" Downpipe w/ Integrated Flex Section. NO MORE CRACKING DOWNPIPES. Hands down the best downpipe on the market! GEN 2/3 3SGTE MOTORS! Also available in black ceramic coated stainless. Ceramic coatings help keep exhaust engergy (heat) inside the exhaust pipe to help spool the turbo instead of heating up your engine bay.

• Full Bellmouthed Wastegate section. Large bellmouth portion never before seen on the MR2. Allows full actuation of the wastegate flapper and extremely low backpressure on the turbine wheel. Flows BETTER than divorced wastegate setups.
• Integrated stainless steel braided and interlock lined flex section to ELIMINATE cracking problems associated with 3SGTE downpipes. Another MR2 first by Berk Technology.
• Full 304 stainless steel piping & flanges.
• Thick walled 0.065” 304 SS tubing.
• This downpipe will OUTFLOW and OUTPERFORM any and all 2.5” downpipes. No if’s ands or buts. This has been tested by us and competing manufacturers and we have both come to the same conclusions. 3.00” is always better than 2.5”. PERIOD.
• Includes gasket, 304 stainless downpipe support bracket, & nuts/bolts.
• World class quality and fitment that you’ve come to expect from Berk

QUOTE (schmooot @ Feb 3, 2011 - 6:48 PM) *
What exactly is the wideband bung for? forgive my noobishness.

If I get the one without the option and then decide to do something requiring it will I be SOL or can the base one be modified? If I go with the wideband bung now can it be plugged until/if/when I am ready to use it?

I guess my question is am I better off to go with the fully loaded just to have the option available? or should I just stick with the standard because I have no idea why I would want the fully loaded model?



it's to put in a wideband sensor so you can hook it up to a gauge which will tell you how lean or rich your air/fuel mixture is. Can anyone else add to this? that's my understanding of it

you can get it without the wideband option and still have a port to plug your stock O2 sensor. If you go with the wideband option, it comes with a plug that you can plug up until you are ready to use it in the future

having the black ceramic coating will keep the exhaust heat in the downpipe for cooler engine temps. this can also be achieved by thermal exhaust wraps which you can do yourself
