HIGH PERFORMANCE TURBO DOWNPIPES BY HPA

Maximizing engine performance starts with engine heat management. Turbo charged applications generate extreme amount of surface heat at the turbo charger that radiates directly into the aluminum head reducing the engine ECU's ability to advance ignition and fueling maps due to detonation. Besides strict global emissions standards resulting in restrictive catalytic converters being installed, oem engineers must factor global restrictions on minimum clearances for front impact crash test results when packaging and designing the factory turbo downpipes.

Each HPA downpipe application is designed around emissions compliance requirements, thermal radiation/contact surface clearances and engine ecu software framework. The calibrators drive the hardware demands to ensure that the dimensions and catalytic converter requirements are calibrated within the spectrum of the ecu's capabilities. The goal is to reduce the heat at the mounting surface of the turbocharger to the aluminum head. When the balance of heat reduction has been realized, the calibrators can create a fuel and ignition mapping that will ensure that the tailpipe gases are clean and the boost levels can be raised. Heat is the enemy of HP and even your stock mapping will benefit form a more fluid design of exhaust gas discharge.

The average OEM 63mm downpipe diameter coupled with a restrictive catalytic converter and varying angles don't allow for ideal flow specifications and result in higher back pressure at the turbo forcing it to work harder and generate excessive heat.

HPA's resulting 3" downpipe is a fabrication assembly designed around functionality and durability and proudly manufactured in Canada. .063wall T304L stainless mandrel tubing is precision tig welded and Argon back purged for an ultra clean look on the exterior and a perfect clean weld on the interior. Our CNC formed hanger and laser cut flanges mate this assembly to the chassis and will withstand the thermal conditions the turbo will generate. Our flex couplings feature an internal stainless steel interlock liner that facilitates smooth flow of high temperature exhaust gases.

HPA EA888 Gen 1 and 2 street downpipes come standard with our 100C high flow cats while the new MQB GTI and Golf R come standard with our 300 cell metal cat, the same quality of cats used on all HPA twin turbo high performance vehicles.

Less chemicals than others and it works! Need to sell a larger version however!
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Easy application and excellent for sun protection! One of the "cleaner" ones with less chemicals, but could be cleaner. The tube is very small, so we only use this for face and use Alba Botanica for body. Last time swimming for 1.5 hours, did not burn, while friends who used other sunscreens on their faces were sunburned. Coppertone, please make a bigger tube!

Was NOT Moana themed
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Worked perfectly for our Disney trip. Fit well in our fanny packs. Kind of greasy, but its hard to get away from that with sunscreen. Be advised, though, it was NOT Moana. It was just a regular stick. My kids were a little disappointed.

Perfect little sunscreen
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Easy for my son to apply himself at summer camp. Compact size for his backpack. Only downfall is it goes on white until fully rubbed in, which is normally fine but when my son is trying to get his face himself at camp it is hard for him. Wish it went clear on its own.

Works very well
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Sent this with my daughter to preschool application was very easy for the teachers. Overall the stick was a little bit smaller than expected but it goes a long ways. Was really happy with the overall ingredients in this product versus others. Well worth the money and my daughter was more open to having it because of the application being in a stick.
