It will be safe and repeatable.if you feel you need an exhaust after doing the above, fit one. Or lop the centre muffler off. These cars are a different kettle of fish altogether to what most people are used too. In the old days you added bits steadily and it all helped as you went. With these things? It just doesn`t work that way and it takes a while for folk to get their heads around it.One of the tuners who you no doubt spoke to said something that put into perspective rather well when I started with my Typhoon:" you`ve bought a 40,000 dollar car, and you wanna be a tight arse and put some hillbilly saloon car exhuast under it " Conversely, you can spend 2 or so grand on quality shocks, springs and sway bars and feel the benefit every single time you get in the car...

Exhaust should be done last IMO bar cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonf6 Member 17 Member For: 13y 7m 15d Posted 09/07/11 11:55 PM Author Share Posted 09/07/11 11:55 PM Hi all,Thanks for the feedback. I'll go ahead and do the intercooler, injectors and a retune. If anyone knows someone selling and intercooler let me know.I was confused/disspointed becasue most of the "experts" in brissy wanted me to spend & spend and I only wanted slight gains in power not a full box & dice. They seemed more concerned with their bootom line/how much I spent rather than what I wanted...go figure! All of the advice that's been received, makes sense.
