2013 Aston Martin V8 Vantage X-Pipe Install and Cold Start

*Please install at your own risk.
A short how-to on installing the Velocity AP X-Pipe. Previously, I installed the Velocity Exhaust Manifolds and 200 Cell Cats with a Stage 3 tune.
I was extremely happy with the power increase, throttle response, and exhaust note. The X-Pipe changed the note to be much higher pitch getting away from the traditional V8 raspy rumble.
I did not feel too much in power gains, more torquey if anything, and it quieted the noise by making the modulations much smoother. It is still loud, don't get me wron,g but it seems quieter due to it being a much smoother tone.
Tools
3/8 or 1/2 rachet
13mm Deep socket for the donut flange
15mm Deep socket for adapter flange and rear connector
T30 Torx Bit
WD40 or lube to help
A friend or someone to lend you a second pair of hands
Next video will be comparing the exhaust notes from the different stages

@@Hwang_Over 저는 팹스피드에서 200cel cat 과 x 파이프 를 주문했는데 1년째 안오고있어요... 앤드는 라니니 가변 이구요.. 벨로시티 배기 하신거같은데 혹시 벨로시티 는 주문하면 빠른시일에 받아볼수있으셨나요??

네, 제 Velocity AP였습니다. 그들은 모두 배송 문제, 특히 캐나다에서 일어나는 일과 관련하여 문제가 있습니다. David Appleby Engineering, Valiant Ecosse 또는 British Motor Services에서 주문해 보십시오. 인증된 소매업체입니다.

Hey was wondering if you could tell me your real world mileage per gallon?

[@Hwang_Over]

Hey Roy, I just took her out for a drive yesterday, I am getting between 12-14 mpg and under constant load and short pulls I am around 8-10

[@personalprivilege6992]

Whats the HP increase?

[@Hwang_Over]

I have the 4.7 that comes with 420 and from some dyno sheets ive seen it is around 470 or so. I am going to dyno in the future

[@justinkwok3313]

Oem rear exhaust?

[@Hwang_Over]

Yup...for now. VAP manifolds, 200 cell and X-Pipe with tune. OEM back box with Fuse 15 pulled.
