Default not full potential?

I currently drives a 95 civic si hb with complete 98 itr swap.

It has stock gsr exhaust manifold, stock si exhaust piping. Only mod done to the motor is short ram intake.


My question is, am i losing "alot" of power by not having these things upgraded?

Yeah, it's not putting out the 195bhp that it did when it was in the ITR because of that GSR manifold and the stock Si exhaust (1.75" piping?). With a nice swap in a nice car like that I would go big and get a HyTech header (or Toda at least) and then a 60mm catback. The Buddy Club Pro Spec II sounds freaking Bad on my friend's '00 ITR, a little loud but it looks so nice. Sounds like you're the quiet type though since you're still rockin' stock, get a RS*R Exmag, mine should be here tomorrow, I'll tell you how I like it.
