I guess this had come down to the fact I'm still running the stock cross over pipes??? Just waiting on the rapid V2.5 system now. But none in stock for about 2 months.

I cant see a bigger less restrictive hot side hurting performance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEXXED Banned Banned 910 Member For: 12y 5m 4d Gender: Male Posted 04/09/12 11:39 AM Share Posted 04/09/12 11:39 AM With the hotside Bruce explained it to me like this.The factory pipe all be it smaller allows boost to come on sooner/harder because of the faster airflow through the slightly smaller but more than adequate std 2" hotside.2" hotside on a smaller Fg turbocharged car....that would boost off idle I recon.
