Towing with Diamond Eye downpipe

[Rttoys]

I know a Diamond Eye downpipe is more of a performance product, but how is it's longevity while towing?? To be exact, can it withstand 1200-1400* temps for 4+ hours of constant towing, over and over again??

Oh and can headerwrap sustain that same torture without burning into a big fireball??

Just ask'n....

[Rttoys]

The downpipe is the pipe that comes off the turbo and attaches to the front pipe of the exhaust. The stocker is restrictive, the Diamond Eye is nice free flowing.

[Rttoys]

No. I'm just on a quest for the lowest towing EGTs on a Dmax while keeping the cab as quiet as possible.

[2500HeavyDuty]

i cant even tell if ur truck is on its so quiet

stil runnin the stock intake with the lbz turbo inlet?

[Rttoys]

Everything is stock.

[2500HeavyDuty]

I'm also looking for some info about the diamond eye down pipe. I have a 5" cat back that I'm going to add the cat delete pipe to. I tow a toyhauler and am looking to lower my EGT's also. Would the new down pipe be worth the money?

[Rttoys]

I got mine because I saw someone elses and saw the flow advantages over the stock downpipe. I like the EGT's I'm at right now but the burning smell worries me. I put my truck in the air yesterday and took a look at everything. No leaks anywhere from the downpipe back, but the downpipe is very very close and almost touching the bulkhead (firewall) insulation. I'm suspecting that's where the burning smell is coming from. Sustaining 1200+* for a long period of time while towing might be a bit too much for that area back there. I'm going to call Diamondeye about it and get their input.
