if you are looking for a inexpensive pipe the 2035 (any of them, brand wise) will make you happy. Best pipe I had besides the 2013,2058 and 2057. look back in the first 100 pages there is lot of information of different pipes tested.

Lol, "just look back in the first 100 pages" it sounds funny reading that! Who would have though that this would turn into such a mega thread just a year ago! Thanks again to all that have supported us and chosen to give our engines a shot, it is appreciated!

I've been a little bussy the last few days but will be back on here working through the last pages of questions, sorry about the delay!

Regards,

Ron

I ran a RE10 pipe on mine when I first got it which I think is about the same thing as the os 2060 pipe and it was pretty good but then I got a 2013 and man that engine came to life. I couldn't believe the difference it made. It's worth the extra money trust me.

We're you able to get this resolved?

Are you saying that each tank I run that I should only pull the throtle 1/4(or whatever the distance is for the LS to be out of the spray bar) to keep the LS needle in the spray bar? I mean I can theoreticaly use a full pull on the throtle for each break in tank and it will not go very fast do to the rich HS setting.

I can't be the only person who thinks this is more confusing than it should be, right? Using your method on my first Werks B5 went perfectly fine but I completely disregarded this step in question and continually pulled the air filter to observe the air gap until it was down to a .5mm before I started messing with the HS needle.

I have a B6 I am going to break in this weekend and I want to really get it right this time.

Ron maybe you could PM me and we could exchange numbers so I don't hijack this thread any more with my nonsense :lol:

Hello Hookem34, just wanted to follow up on this also and make sure that you got everything figured out? If not please feel free to give me a call during the week. Number is listed on our site if you do not have it.

It's true, lol. All information on pipes and tuning wise is there, the very first 100 - 150 pages. Been here since almost the beginning :nod:. Thanks for great equipment(I can't said just engines anymore), going in my 2nd B5 and 1st B6.

Regards

LMAO, I forgot the count, how many times I read and hear that. The werks pipes make you look like this :D in the stand, isn't it?.

Yeah from ear to ear. When I first run the 2013 pipe I had just bought it from a friend of mine right before the A main started so I threw it on there real quick and as soon as I started the engine I was like wow that is awesome. You could just hear and feel the power. The first few laps I was all over the track from the extra power I had and it only temped at like 200 so I still had plenty more to go but that's all I wanted lol. Can't wait to get it out again.

to all the guys running Mugen how do you get the werks pipes to fit?

I run a 6T and have melted the side of my body because the pipe is pushed up into it due to the wide bend of the header.

I am running the 2057 does the 2013 have a better fitting header?

I was going to run my mugen header but its a 3 spring coupler and the werks pipes are 4 spring.

You can tweak the bend if the header a bit simply by inserting a socket extension in each side and putting a little bit of force on it. Also you can pull in your pipe a bit with the mounting wire.

I run the 2013 pipe and I did the same thing to my brand new body. I did what Ron said and bent the header a little bit but it still rubs. Just get some heat resistant tape and tape the hell out of your body. That's what I've done but I haven't to a chance to try it out yet. That's really the only thing I know to do if you wanna use the werks pipes and I do highly recommend using them Hope this helps.

Some of us took the mugen jx header and drilled it for a 4-spring setup. Pretty dialed.

In the Past I would use a hobby grade blow torch to heat and bend stingers back in place try this you may be able to get more of a bend without causing cold bend stress.

I thought about that too. I have a short header at home with it being short like that will it change the bottom end? This is the header I'm talking about. Not the pipe just the header. Does anyone know what pipe this is. I think it's a werks pipe but I'm not sure. http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/...6/70c39a2d.jpg
