But if you modify the exhaust with a hi flow cat and dump pipe system you will then. Edited 06/06/22 03:48 AM by JVK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electronic boost control is obviously better. Most tuners enjoy the control you get from the factory boost control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
