From the NEW AP Carbon Division, comes the Carbon Fiber version of our wildly successful aluminum Y-Pipe Kit for the Porsche Panamera Turbo!  We wanted to step up the luxury look of the engine bay with a full carbon fiber version. This carbon fiber Y-Pipe is a full replacement and includes everything you need to install in place of the original.

The stock Y-Pipe is a 2 piece plastic Y design that is smooth on the inside with a “deflector” internally to channel air. The bad part about the stock one is it goes from a 78mm ID at the throttle body down to a approximately 51mm diameter Y split. This then connects to rubber boost hoses that expand under pressure. Both of these are a power robbers! If you retain the stock design and stock diameter hoses, YOU CANNOT GAIN power no matter if the YPipe is cast aluminum or plastic. This is why we made a complete Y-Pipe kit which retains a 3inch diameter design all the way to the factory end piece connections at the intercoolers.

The dyno sheet shows the car in standard mode with the stock Y piece versus our big Y-Pipe kit. These are huge gains throughout the ENTIRE rpm band which is impressive. Dyno proven results are not something to see, but something you can feel. The more airflow you get into that throttlebody the more HP you will gain. By eliminating the rubber boost hoses, you remove the pressure fluctuation from expansion which loses power. With our Y-Pipe kit, the air flow improvement improves every aspect of driving your Panamera Turbo. As tested on our Mustang AWD Dyno, the Y-Pipe made 34awhp and 35ft/lbs of torque.

These Y-Pipes are all made in the USA using carbon fiber braided sleeve and a bladder molding technique. The Y-Pipe includes necessary couplers and clamps for a true bolt on installation. All clamps should be torqued to no more then 15lbs. These are designed for the 2010 and up Porsche Panamera Turbo.

A little about the Agency Power Downpipes:

“Agency Power downpipes are designed to improve your turbo charged vehicles performance. Agency Power’s BMW E82 135i downpipes are no exception. These pipes are made from polished 304 stainless steel. They connect to the headers with a 3″ diameter opening and V band flange. They have an inside diameter of 2.60″. The larger diameter design will improve exhaust flow, keep boost pressure up and provide improved throttle response. This down pipe eliminates the catalytic converters. Each down pipe has 2 oxygen sensor locations. Thick flanges, sturdy hangers and increased flow make these down pipes a must have for all E82 enthusiasts.  All Agency Power Products carry a limited lifetime warranty!”

Today, here are a couple snapshots of the Agency Power Downpipes being installed on the 2008 BMW 135i:

This car has a Burger Motorsports JB4 Tuner and Remus axle back exhaust.

Testing was done on our Mustang Dyno, which we all know shows lower numbers. We’re just base-lining the car to show how the Agency Power Downpipes will perform next. Should have the downpipes installed soon, so subscribe to our Facebook Fan Page, Twitter, Blog, or YouTube Channel for the next videos and results!

In the meantime, here is a sneak peek at the first AP Carbon part, the Carbon Fiber Porsche Panamera Y-Pipe!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FROM OUR ALUMINUM PORSCHE PANAMERA Y-PIPE :  “Looking at the stock Y design in front of the throttle body, we new there was improvements to be made. This throttle body is the same size as the Cayenne TT throttle body we use on our 996TT and 997TT upgrade kits. The stock Y-Pipe is a 2 piece plastic Y design that is smooth on the inside with a “deflector” internally to channel air. The bad part about the stock one is it goes from a 78mm ID at the throttle body down to a approximately 51mm diameter Y split. This then connects to rubber boost hoses that expand under pressure. Both of these are a power robber! If you retain the stock design and stock diameter hoses, YOU CANNOT GAIN power. This is why we made a complete Y-Pipe kit which retains a 3inch design all the way to the factory end piece connections at the intercoolers.

Below is a short video showing the strength of the AP Carbon:

• Agency Power GT30R Rotated Turbo Kit(includes downpipe with open dump pipe, Short Ram Intake)
• AP Front Mount Intercooler Kit
• AP Turbo Back Exhaust
• AP Blow Off Valve
• AP Fuel Rail
• AP Fuel Distribution Block
• AP Fuel Lines
• AP Alternator Cover
• AP Silicone Hoses
• AP Intercooler Piping

• AP Rear Sway Bar

The car is still being tuned on the dyno but so far it has made 460 horsepower at the wheels on a Mustang 4 Wheel Dyno on 91 pump gas.  This was at a conservative 15-16 psi boost.  The torque was 400 lb/ft.!

Here’s an excerpt from the full article:

Berk Technology’s BMW 135i Time Attack Demonstrator

When Berk Technology set out to build a time attack car, their intent was not to build some sort of exotic open class killer; it was more to build a rolling test bed for their exhaust products and something that their high performance street customers could relate to. Thus it was decided that their efforts would evolve around building a car to compete in Redline Time Attack’s Rear Wheel Drive Street Class. Street Class is something that Berk’s customer base could identify with and would be a more powerful marketing statement.

An Alpine White 2008 BMW 135i with a 6-speed manual transmission was selected as a base vehicle as a large amount of Berk customers are owners of this car. The One Series’ compact size, relatively light weight and twin-turbo six cylinder engine lend itself well to simple modifications and are easy to build into a competitive car.

The choice of Rotora brakes over the excellent stock Brembo’s is a head scratcher. Berk is in the process of switching to some uber trick Performance Friction brakes soon.
The brake system on any race car is important. The Berk car relies on Rotora six piston calipers and 355mm rotors for stopping. We cannot figure out why the team would remove the stock car’s excellent Brembo six piston OEM calipers for what seems a downgrade but we will be helping them with a set of Performance Friction super brakes which you will see featured here in a few weeks! It should be no problem to match PFC’s claim of .2 seconds a lap or your money back guarantee! The brakes are fitted with Carbotech brake pads using XP10 compound on the front and XP8 compound in the rear. Ti Speed brake pad shims are used to reduce heat transfer into the ATE Blue brake fluid. Agency Power braided steel brake lines are used.

Agency Power braided steel brake lines improve pedal feel.

After a 2009 development season and with a new veteran driver Mike Bonanni, the Berk 135i entered the 2010 Redline Time Attack season with a roar securing enough points to just about clinch the 2010 season championship at this time. Below is the cars record in the 2010 season to date.
Buttonwillow – 1st Place – 1:58.839 **New Street Tire RWD Record
Las Vegas Motor Speedway – 2nd Place – 1:49.111
Auto Club Speedway – 2nd Place – 1:51.373
Willow Springs – 3rd Place – 1:30.415
