Posted 05/12/06 04:15 AM Share Posted 05/12/06 04:15 AM As has been stated there is a more restrictive area in the na exhaust system the the muffler assy.That being the manifold this is where the most gains in the na engines will be gained.Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only other think I will end up doing is a 3in metal cat or similar. Great cheap mod specially if you can get a T exhaust cheap !!!Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
