7981, Straight Pipe installed
Posted by amljbs, Sep-07-05 02:49 PM
Only took about an hour and I must say with just that and intake the top end is much much better. It seems a tad bit weaker on the low end but once it really gets going it takes off. Of course this will get stuck on the shelf once I get the downpipe and catback but for the price it was well worth it just to see it flowing better. No CEL yet after about 50miles but Im sure its coming.

Another thing that amazed me about this was the fact that the exhaust tone really didnt change at all. It seems like the turbo spool got louder but no exhaust difference. Guess this gives me hope for a quiet exhaust when its all done.

Yea well it might be loud, but it should sound GOOD.
