my car allready has ppp and I was just wondering what the performance difference would be by fitting a stainless steel downpipe? and also is it neccesary to fit a stainless up pipe aswell and I take I would also need the two sensors aswell?
Which downpipe/up pipe would be best suited to ppp setup allready on the car?
I have done a search on here and this subject very inconclusive, money as allways being a major factor, I may have to keep my eye out for some second hand items, just want to know what to keep my eye's peeled for! thanks in advance Taffyboyo. D)

With a ppp it would ne advisable to fit an upipe & downpipe at the same time typical gains for the upipe would be circa 8 bhp & the downpipe upto 15 bhp with the turbo spooling up 500-800 rpm faster.

You would typicallly pay £115 upipe & £175 for downpipe though would also need a cel fix to prevent check engine light coming on (as the cats have been removed). Expect to pay £100 for fitting (all prices plus vat)

New you cannot do better than H&S contact Ian/Andy on 01268 727256, second hand source via For Sale forum

A worthwhile investment where you'll probably see circa 265 bhp.....

With an up pipe and downpipe fitted to an 01 PPP car, we regularly see 275-280bhp. Its a very effective mod.

We pioneered the open neck downpipe and that's the only design we sell.

Got the Scoobysport Up pipe and Down pipe on a MY01 PPP and it makes a lot of difference (I've also got the centre section and back box )

Go for it.
