hks dragger catback
tms testpipe
spec flywheel
spec stage 2 kevlar clutch
jawsgear driveshaft

Are you still on stock downpipe? If so get an aftermarket one and go dyno and then post back here with picture!

also, yeah, ^^^^ it doesnt give you horsepower, it just makes you faster because there is less weight and less resistance, but no more air or fuel is going into the system.

you shouldnt trust catalogs, every engine is different and those numbers are only general, it doesnt mean that you will see them once you install your new product. Go to dyno to see what you got ;)

P.S. Flywheel does not give you any HP he frees them, the same goes to driveshaft ;)

honestly i was going to say around 230-240 since he doesn't have exhaust,

my brother put down 265hp and 274 torque with full 3 inch, maft pro 8psi, and a fresh motor with a 2mm mhg, 5spd.

stock they say their a 250hp crank motor, so you have to figure your going to lose through drivetrain.

A 3" turbo back would have the full flow elbow on it as the elbow bolts onto the turbo, hince the name, "turbo back".

Your definetly going to want a DDP. I don't have any personal experience with it, but i will eventually because of all of the good reviews.


errr, i think they sound like shit at wot,

loki2024 has one, and the other day he was fallowing me to my house, and i would romp on it, hear my turbo spool, and the large suction of air sounds great along with the purr of my screaming exhaust.,

while then he got on it to keep up, and it sounded like some one holding a full balloon with the end open and making it fart so to say.. he's car doesn't have a full exhaust so it was definitly audiable,

im not doubting that it could make more power,

but hearing it i really didn't like it.
so i guess find some one close to you who has one and go for a ride, if you like it more power to you, but i would have not be to happy with the results if i bought one with out hearing it first.

Just a metal headgasket and ARP head bolts. I'm not even impressed with my setup..The 511rwhp is going to be surpassed very easily when I get a healthy motor in there (with a headgasket that actually seals). And yes, it was rebuilt about 30K miles ago. And I only tune with an AFC.

A more impressive set-up would be X-man who put down 639rwhp on his stock internalled 7M. I can't wait to see when he re-dynos with that GT42.
