what are normal gains with test pipe??

 

What is your current setup?

 

2.25 test pipe, homemade intake tube (reroutes for cold air)... fuel pressure regulator...

 

test pipes =

ever considered the environment??

selfish ppl =

 

"ever considered the environment??"
You should be asking Mayor Bloomberg that one not us!


If you don't know what I meen... no more glass and plastic recycling, it costs too much.

[e]j/k.. but hey you only live once. The way I see it, by the time the hole in the ozone is big enough to make a damn bit of difference, ther'll be an ozone factory on... THE MOON!

i dont know the gains from a testpipe, but the gains i got going from a 2.25 mugen header and stock cat to 2.5 dc jdm and test pipe were easily noticeable, with nearly the same loudness as before, with a tanabe RM exaust

 

i don't think u will gain much power just runing the testpipe.. high flow cat is better instead of testpipe..

daym, like driving a car that uses and burns fuel is enviornmental friendly? uhh riiiite...jeez lighten up.

 

i agree that i sounded too condesending...my bad

however, regarding the car burning fuel issue
a cat converts the smog to carbon dioxide...without the cat, the smog comes out as carbon MONOXIDE...which is highly toxic (it disrupts cellular respiration)...therefore, its not simply burning a hole in the ozone!

if you think you only live a life once, pls consider you children and your grand children

Nice.. If you get a JDM header and 2.5" cat/test pipe the gains will be even better. Get an aftermarket exhaust and you will be smiling even more..

 

Its only for a few months. Recycling the glass and plastic is an expensive processes. Once the city gets back on its financial feet, it will be re-instated.

muahah

good stuff

if i didnt want to hurt the ozone, i wouldnt drive, ever... actually i dont drive much anyways, you probadly hurt it more then me..

did you not read?!?!...i just said that the carbon monoxide that comes out from a test pipe affects cellular respiration not necessarily ozone!

 

ok heres a high flow cat question. I currently have a DC4-1, AEM, 5Zigen exhaust with a stock cat. How much of a gain could I expect by getting a high flow cat considering my current setup?
