I am going to be getting my car tuned in the next day or two, I run full exhaust but would also like be able to drive the car open DP when I want like at the track etc.

My question is should I tune open DP or with the exhaust on?


Exhaust setup is 2.5" turbo back with a straight through resonator and magnaflow muffler. I have a good sized turbo so open dp im sure will help spool up time.

 

tune open and make sure that things are safe with the exhaust

 

if you tune open dp and then add the exhuast later, your final tune w/ the exhaust will be more conservative

Ok gotcha that makes sense. The car open DP is really not all that loud but I just like the exhuast for things like road trips and not getting tickets lol

 

i ran open 3" dp for a month or so...it wasn't that bad, but it gets old really fast. Also, my gf was getting tired of my car smelling like an outboard boat motor

 

i tuned my car open DP, then went to exhaust, just richens it up a little and doesnt hurt anything!

 

It wont make that big of a bifference to even worry about it.

 

no difference in tuning or boost with mine... i guess my full exhaust is pretty damn good.

but i have a e-cutout and only half the exhaust ever goes out it, the other half still goes through the muffler..

Haha yea I have that same problem lol "why is it so loud?" "is every thing suposed to vibrate like that??" haha


Cool thanks guys

 

id have to say that if it is a street car then get it tuned full exhaust. I had open dp and it really got annoying.

 

e-cut out w/ stock exhaust FTW!!!!

 

i did a couple pulls w/cut out closed then when i opened it up i gained 20+ whp
