Cool

Hi guys,

Just installed my new SS back box on my JDM STi-7

I love the sound. Will be installing the SS centre section and DownPipe (with restrictor change and ODBII CEL fix) next Saturday.

Just wanted to say big thanks to Pete Croney. Everything arrived all the way from UK to The Bahamas with no damages, cheers Pete !

Sound is very nice compared to stock backbox but I am sure I am in for more of a treat with centre and downpipe also converted to SS.

Will it get much louder when I change the above ?

Cheers,
Ray

What do you think is a conservative increase in BHP and torque with the full SS turbo back installed ??? 276 increased to 300 bhp ??? and 260 ft. lbs. increased to 285 ft lbs. ???

Also, will the torque curve start sooner...ie: how much more torque gained between 2,000 - 4,000 rpms, maybe an additional 15 ft. lbs ???

Cheers,
Ray

Haven't got a scooby-doo Ray but I'd guess that you're in the right ballpark ....

I have a SS BB on my MY99 Turbo and it sounds great, especially with the windows down under hard acceleration ... going through tunnels it sounds magic I'll look out for you as I'm going to the Bahamas in September with the other 1/2 ...

Cheers
Phil

PS: Please specify if you have a UK or JDM as the starting point bhp and torque numbers will obviously be different
