Question

Hello Scooby fans,

I'm very interested in up-pipe since they did it for the MY01.
First time I heard about it, was on I-forum though we had WRX 6 months before them.
I know some of you had done the mod.
In France, the nobody know that, and worse, nobody can provide it.
I would like to know where I can find it in UK and for how many £ or €.

The only I saw was at GGR fot 85 ex.VAT.
What about Scoobysport ?

P.S. Your site is a great, it rocks, like our car :-)

Some links for French Scooby sites :
[link=http://perso.club-internet.fr/lchaboud/]Subaru Webclub[/link]
[link=http://perso.wanadoo.fr/wrxtreme/]WRX STI[/link]
[link=http://www.thierry-h.fr.fm/]Thierry-H[/link]
[link=http://www.chez.com/clubpassionsub/]Club Passion Sub[/link]
[link=http://www.club-amateurs-subaru.com/]Club Amateurs Subaru[/link]

P.P.S. Can U help me to put correct links, please. I do not find any help.
Thanx

What Dave said

On the URL front, just add [ URL ] URL goes here [ /URL ] without the spaces:

Subaru Webclub
WRX STI
Thierry-H
Club Passion Sub
Club Amateurs Subaru

And if you still don't get it then do a View Source and have a look at the HTML of my post....

DAVE T-S : thanx for Scoobysport. I made a request on their site for the price of the uppipe but it seems that a kind of robot send me their pricelist where I can't find the pipe.
Do U know the price, Dave ?

MUTANT_MATT : thanx too, I only practice on our local EZboard, where the URL is LINK :-)


Many thanks to Pete : he just send me an email with the price of the uppipe. It's £125 + VAT (17.5% I mean)
On GGR, it only £85 but I wonder where it come from.

The up pipe itself is around GBP 150 (approx EUR 245), but it is a lengthy job to fit, and gaskets, studs, labour here takes it up to around GBP 350 (EUR 570).

J'ai décidé que ceci devra être une modification pour moi cette année. Particulièrement après avoir vu les flammes du dos de la voiture de Dave.

Le souhait juste le coût de la main-d'oeuvre de la main-d'oeuvre n'était pas aussi haut. Mais pendant que vous dites en France qu'est la vie.

Pete told me 3-4 hours fitting.
In France, the fitting costs 50€ /hour inc.VAT >> £31

The pipe + fitting will cost approx. £220

I also inquire for a Unorthodox Racing Pulley.

I expect 10-20 more HP with the 2 mods.

Do someone know where to find that in England ?

I prefer to make e-business with GB rather than US 'cause there's no 15% custom tax, and less shipping cost :-))

bye.

That's interesting, buy the part from UK (£150) get a day return to France (£30) from Dover 3-4 hours fitting (£124), lunch (£15) and 3 crates of stella (£30) and a nice little blip around France. Total cost £350

It would be the closest to a BBQ I could get. It's grim up North!
