Adam Here since the start...

I would do a bit more research before you put on that 3" exhaust, 3" exhausts are considered to be worse than the standard 2 x 2.25" exhaust.Cheers,Adam.

DAWSEY Member 441 Member For: 19y 2m 2d Gender: Male Posted 10/12/05 01:06 AM Author Share Posted 10/12/05 01:06 AM I was thinking of going with a system like the aps.but I was having a chat with the guy from the performance shop and he said that you can make up a system using pre made parts for alot less money and have the same power gain!!is this correct or is he pulling my leg??he is very good at what he does but he also could be saying that so he makes more money out of me!

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 11m 29d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 10/12/05 03:59 AM Share Posted 10/12/05 03:59 AM Welcom to another Northern Beaches Member, I see a few black T's running around.The Exhaust shop could make up a custom setup for you, but it would never match a APS setup as they are a work of art and engineering.At the end of the day you will pay for what you get. While I am sure the local place would do a good job and you would get gains, most people why want under 300rwkw have found the stock setup perfect, except for the Cat.If you can get either a hiflo cat or gut it, you will get a great result.I have just ordered a black BF f6.
