Default Champion motors ttix 3" downpipe upgrade



Anyone looking for more POWER After plenty of R&D we have perfected our fully stainless direct bolt-on 3" downpipes. We are looking at gains anywhere from 50-100rwhp. Dyno result coming shortly...

Sweet. Nice looking piece and it brings the TTix up to a new level. Is there any clearancing needed to fit it? I always heard that a 3" down pipe was "impossible" on the TTix. That there was jus not enough room.

No clearancing needed fit like the old ones.

Nice work Rob. I looking forward to seeing the improvement the 3" down pipes make over the 2.5". Fran and I have had several conversations about the 2.5'' pipes being a restriction when pushing the TTix kit to or close to its limits.

The turbine wheel on the ttix come either 62mm or 65mm, and the downpipe is 59mm which will cause alot of back pressure.

At what point would the 3" be a benifit?

Right on Fran. The 3” pipes make the system more efficient, you will be able to move more air. Strictly as an example, let’s say 8lb of boost makes 650 rwhp with the 2.5” pipes. Install the more efficient 3” pipes and that same 8lb of boost may now make 675 rwhp.

yup, and maybe even more than that...

on 1.8L turbo cars the benefits from 2.5" to 3" exhaust are noticeable, especially in the downpipe.

If you look at the 6.0 or 6.2L v8 as a 3.0 or 3.1L 4cylinder, you have even more gas to get out, so you'd see a pretty noticeable increase in power.

I've seen supras with ~3.0L motors run 4" downpipes and exhausts (granted they're probably running significantly higher boost)

Can you elaborate on these? How much for a set for a C6 Z06 TTix kit, and how soon can they be available?

The 2.5" downpipes on the TTix system were the major reason keeping me away from their kit.

No pricing,but George from TTI said he has the 3 inch downpipes done ready for the C6 Z06 kits.

The 3" pipe will have less restriction. You will see benefits at every boost level ... You will make more power through out the whole power band.
