PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
The cp-e® downpipe set for the 2.7L EcoBoost Ford Bronco is unlike any other. It was engineered from the foundation of the cp-e® Bronco Raptor Downpipe to be the most durable and robust downpipe available for this model. Every design element was meticulously considered, including unique cast stainless bellmouths built to outlast the vehicle itself. These are crafted to be far more durable than a traditional flange and tube setup held together by welding. The design is tailored for an exact fit with the 2.7T Bronco, with an upper O2 bung port cast into the structure for optimal placement; a crucial feature given the tight confines of the engine bay and exhaust tunnel.
All fixturing and welding are done in-house, with each fixture designed on a computer and set using CAD to ensure consistency. This approach takes more time initially but results in a highly refined product.
Smoother Flow
The OEM downpipe is highly restrictive and it's much more noticable when you put them side-by-side. We opened up the channel into the catalyst to provide a smoother flow of air through the curve.
Solid Catalysts
Our catalytic converter is brazed to the outer shell’s sidewall to ensure unrestricted airflow, avoiding the conventional stuffed and rolled method that can compromise durability. To enhance strength and improve exhaust flow, we also stamp the endcaps.
Secondary O2 Bungs
Further down the tube, you’ll find a secondary O2 sensor, precision CNC-machined in-house to achieve an exact fit on the tubing, allowing for superior welding. This sensor is more accessible and doesn’t require casting in place. We mount it with CNC laser-cut brackets produced in-house, setting it apart from those that merely use rods or flat sheet metal. This added attention to detail reflects our commitment to pushing boundaries.
Stronger Tubing
The tubing itself is CNC-bent from 16-gauge stainless steel and formed as a single piece. Using thicker stainless steel than many competitors, we ensure the downpipe can withstand the high temperatures and vibrations typical of this part’s location in the exhaust.
Custom Multi-Layer Gaskets
With over 20 years in the industry, we’ve handled many exhaust gaskets, but one from a Mazda stood out as the best. Inspired by it, we crafted our own custom, 4-layer stainless steel exhaust gasket. While most gaskets use only two layers, we doubled that to provide the best possible seal. More layers allow the gasket to compress and conform better, resulting in an improved seal. Initially made specifically for the Bronco Raptor, this design will soon extend to all our downpipes!
