So after hearing about how the uppipe cat can melt and destroy my turbo, i decide to get an uppipe for goodness sake..
The job took 3.5 hours, it was done at REV.. the piece looks pretty decent given that the price is fairly cheap..
Before, i used to believe that an aftermarket uppipe would not increase volume, but i was wrong..
My car is noticably louder after the uppipe install and i get more back firing! i mean much more, it's like 50% chance from 1st to 2nd gear..
The car stinks pretty bad too now.. time for some air fresher.. the power is gooood.. i also had samco IC hoses put on (not sure if those make a difference).. finally i can push the car without worrying about breaking something..
now debating on ecu first, or later with bigger turbo together.. ummm...
thanks for listening.. :lol:
