fastfwd Member 103 Member For: 13y 6m 26d Posted 22/12/11 08:49 AM Author Share Posted 22/12/11 08:49 AM Ok, Cat and dump installed.No engine light and its not going in limp mode and its been a whole day and half of driving so it seems that this cat is legit. The exhaust note has changed quite a bit, 10% louder and slightly meatier and I get a bit of a gurbel which is nice.I have noticed a significant increase in power, but I think it might be over boosting 2-3 psi because the turbo spool is slightly louder, I really need a boost guage to monitor whats going on. I cant be 100% sure if it is over boosting though if it is its not much and im not thrashing it so im playing it safe until I get a tune in the new year.speaking of which now I have 3.5 inch dump, high flow 3.5 inch cat and twin 2.75 inch exhaust, and high flow air filter is there anything small or cheap that I need to purchase before I get my tune that could increase my power gains significantly? ie injectors? colder air intake kit that goes under the battery? I just want to get the most out of my tune without having to spend to much more for the time being. I have a track car I spend money on and this car was only meant to be a daily driver and not a tuner so I don't want to go to big for the time being.also with the current setup, if I get it tuned what power would you think I would be looking at?

But its defiantly magnaflow. Stamped all over the exhaust, u can even get magnaflow dump and cat but I got it quoted up at $1200 just for parts. (current ebay dump and cat setup cost me $490) On 22/12/2011 at 9:16 AM, Dillz said: You got a BA yeah? max is about 280.I got a TTG 2006. So max is 280 (atw???) on stock injectors, and if I get aftermarket 60lbs injectors installed? how much more KW would I be looking at?

fastfwd Member 103 Member For: 13y 6m 26d Posted 22/12/11 09:34 AM Author Share Posted 22/12/11 09:34 AM Obviously I know the injectors can go to 450+ HP if I had other mods installed. But at my current status with full exhaust and high flow air filter if I got a tune would it be viable for me to get injectors now, would it help increase my power now at my current mods? or would my stock injectors be sufficient enough. What im saying is, is it worth spending 300-400 on some injectors if im going to get the same HP at my current mods? or will they give me a significant increase for me to justify the spend.
