Best Exhaust & Extractors For All Round P'mance

Post by 8thWonder »

Im not a big mechanic person thing, but i want a system that will give me more Kw, and more power right the way through the rev range. I would rather more power from mid range through to the end of the rev's. i have a tiptronic GPX, so yeah mivec. is there a suggested system for this car to get best performance, and can you give me a straight out answer, coz if you go on about stuff i will have no idea what your talking about.

thanks in advance

the FTO powerband is really peaky, if anything below 5k is where better response is needed.

A 2 1/4 inch mandrel betn system will help, also the cat fowrd sold on these forums will give you better all round repsonse.

But at the end of the day a 2.0L engine will be a 2.0L engine.
