Upgrade Step 2) Sports Exhaust - 2.25 inch, hotdog, canon
Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 10:47 am
Had this fitted two weeks ago. System is 2.25 inch mid and back section, hot dog and a Genie stainless steel canon - no tip just a pipe extension so that it looks stock
.
Takes about a weeks for the canon to settle down and the boxer rumble to come through properly. Sound now rocks!
Car is definitely more free revving now in low and mid range (I dont take it above 4500-5000rpm). Felt quicker
Pulls much better, especially uphill.
So I guess I really did get more torque and power by doing this.
Downside? After driving for two weeks now, car feels slow again
.
Overall, a recommended upgrade.
NEXT: MSD 6T ignition. Stay tuned for next week's episode!
