Kline restrictive?
- Thread starter AdeD
- Start date
That's surprising, I thought the whole idea of mandrel bending was to avoid that. Felix from Kline is a member on here so he may well give his thoughts and reasoning for this as he would clearly be the best placed person to explain if this is normal or actually would be restrictive. :thumb:
They also make a 3" version I believe. I have a 2.5 200 cell on a 996 turbo, but only around 480-500 hp -ish, it seems very good at this power level. Send a PM to TB993TT, he will fill you in if Felix from Kline doesn't chime in.
Kline are a great company to deal with by the way :thumb:

Called Kline and asked them re prices and was told I have to go through 9e for all UK sales.
9e are site partners
9e seem to have set a high benchmark on this site according to many for tuning and aftercare in the UK.
Be interesting to hear Kline/9e's views on Kline as I've also read certain x pipe sports exhausts are restrictive from some pretty knowledgeable people including (but not limited to) Emre who runs ES Motors.
Funnily enough I've heard 9e's own sports exhaust is best for 996 and 997 turbo from many people on here so interesting to switch to Kline when you already have a market leading product.
Any exhaust with bends will become restrictive eventually and start to raise egt's etc.
Also the pipe bending machines a manufacturer uses can cause narrower parts on a bend too.
It all depends on the power you're making.
A friend has an ES cross over exhaust, I think its around 4 inches and now running 35's its restrictive for him.
Hes having an X pipe fabricated now with valves that open to straight pipes
Picture of old 4" on old setup.
