How do I choose from the myriad of ones out there? Seems I can spend from £150 to £300.

open necked, closed neck, what does it all mean?

Help!

Greg, for a mild tuned scoob, the best bet is the Scoobysport unit. I have tried the PE T75, SS downpipe and currently the BPM unit. The T75 and SS units wherre at about the same state of tune, the BPM was at higher levels, so doesn't compare. I gained better results with the scoobysport unit.

cheers danny, how much does the SS one go for (as the website is down!)

I'm considering putting it onto a PPP'd MY00

I think they are about £180 new, or check the for sale forum, they come up quite often.

A JIM one is well worth considering too available in open and closed necks at great prices.

Basically speaking it is often said that a closed neck is good for torque and an open neck is good for power.
