Default XtremeScoobies- up/downpipe. inc pic!!!

just had my scoobysport downpipe and harveys flexi up-pipe fitted yesterday! only took and hour with two people working on it!! great little place they knew exactly what they were doing! first impressions were a little louder than before but not as loud as i thought it would be, but i am only running the standard exhaust! i didnt really notice a quicker spool up but after 4.5k revs it does pull harder!. not the cheapest mod do do but it will be worth it when i get mapped. oh and my cel light hasnt come on either!

Not many places are worthy of the praise that Xtreme get but Knowlsey and the boys deserve all the credit that they get from us.

Surprised you didn't notice an earlier spool up, mine was very evident and perhaps the most noticable difference made by the Downpipe. Do you have the centre section cat still in place?

And, yes, Xtreme deserve all the praise they get.

Some people that have had the DP and centre cats removed, but put the centre back on for the MOT reported that the car didn't run as well.

My turbo spools up about 700rpm sooner and hits that bit harder throughout the rev range, the way the power is sustained more at the top end is also noticeable.

The earlier spool up was immediately apparent and very welcome.

I do have a classic though, which seem to repsond to exhaust changes sans remap better than the new ages, which need a remap to really exploit the benefits it seems. Maybe that explains it.
