Edit (Wog tunes)2. Centre Muffler3. Clutch4. Bigger Intercooler, Dump Pipe, Injectors and Tune (all at once)In that order - but over a long term probably.←hey buddy they were my plans pretty much but after speaking to these guys I wouldnt mind an exhaust 1st, then when the cabbage is plentiful go the whole hog with injectors, cat, edit/tune, IC etcThe guy I was speaking said on average they are getting an extra 2psi of boost with a freer flowing catback exhaust without going into limp mode..

If you want it to go, edit is the only way. You will need one eventually.OR, there's an Xede goin in one of the threads for $250. I'm having a guy tune mine over my edit next week. If the results are good, might just be worth the $250 purchase price..??? food for thought though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I have no cat )As soon as it comes on boost, it just howls.. mmmm. different..I have a small vid which sort of sounds like it should.. ( to the ear )I hated the sound at first, but am growing to it.. Sounds ok in the car, but I'll have to get a mate to do a fly-by for me... That will determine if it comes out, or different rear muffler put in or muffler goes back in.Power wise, it sounds faster, but I highly doubt there's much difference till it gets tuned, then I'll know.. You can really hear now how 'hollow' the whole exhaust is.. 4" dump, no cat no centre muffler, factory rear muffler..Upload dramas, so here's a linky.Exhaust linkyBe honest with opinions on the sound, I'm a big boy, I can handle it........

Part of it sounded like me after a heavy night on the grog.. with severe morning after effects Perhaps it sounds better when the car is actually moving? It sounds mean though that's for sure.
