Tecnocraft Xpipe and Full exhaust coming soon :)

ok just recently spoke to someone at Tecnocraft and was thinking of fabricating an XPIPE or an option of FULL exhaust for our cars. Let me know what you think?

Here are some photos of exhaust from a BENTLEY and GTR.

Would you really want to do business with Technocraft after the whole Envy Charge Pipe crap?

Well, the envy charge pipe was/is a replacement carbon fiber charge pipe that Technocraft claimed would yield some ficticious HP gain when in fact, after a dyno test, HP was lost. I think the initial price for the thing was around $900.

yea the GTR exhaust is straight pipe that the 1st exhaust that was made so a resonator was deleted and the muffler...

on the M3 They will be putting a resonator as it shows on the Bentley.... Also if the exhaust is going to be made in FULL then they will be adding a muffler as shown on the bentley rear end exhaust. not sure how loud its going to be but im interested on the xpipe with 2 resonator then get a Akra DELETE-R. and call it a day.

I have talked to the guys at Tecnocraft numerous times (although its been a while) and do like what they make and and the quality (I think I have all available Tecnocraft stuff on my car, including lip at the moment). I am interested to see what they come up with. Would be hard to say what I think at this point as they don't have it yet or even a mock up for us to discuss.

They're C/F company who failed to make good C/F products for M3s.
I don't think I'll have confidence to buy x-pipe or muffler from C/F company although pictures look good.

NP once i get my daily car ill drop my car for the R&D it might take a while but i think it might be worth it. from the looks of that Bentley and GTR and seeing it in person cant complain damn exhaust looks to good to pass...

I will be using my slip on Akra and have them do an xpipe with resonator or maybe adding a 200 cell Cat might be a good idea to mimic the the EVO version of the AKRA... but hoping to get several version of the exhaust for consumers straight pipe, 2 resonator no cat, and 2 cat and 2 resonators...

well lets see how it goes... still talking to them right now.

Tried to speak to King via L4P..told me to get in touch with brad@tecnocraft(using their tecnocraft email) ...never heard back.

I was asking if I could buy some replacement bolts as I dropped a few. Whatever.

King is no longer affiliated with tecnocraft, and as far as there intake system goes i felt nothing but gains and saw nothing but gains when i had the envy system so i cant wait to see how the exhaust turns out
