just picked up my01 classic turbo after having a service with new pads front &rear (ferrodo) with new front disc's dba's grooved all so had fitted a panel filter and a de cat down pipe and boy as that freed up some horses.just thought i would share my great big smile on my face with you guys.buy the way i is staying off the brakes to bed them in.stiggy

 

is it a decat front pipe? im waiting for mine to come but not sure what to expect when ive fitted it onto a td05 on my95 classic wrx import what do you recon

 

Which DBA front discs did you get? Standard grooved or the alu-belled grooved one?

How are you finding the rear Ferodos? Mine created an almighty... whats the word... not a squeek... more like a wail... anyway, an awful noise. Replaced the rear pads with some standard OEM pads and no noise at all from the back. Pretty new discs so no chance of any rust/crud lip causing the problem.

Fully decat DP or sport cat? Whats the main difference you notice? More power/torque or better turbo response? Im looking at getting a sport cat DP soon, but Im more interested in increasing response than increasing power (of course I won't complain should I get a healthy increase in power )

 

it is a full de-cat down pipe from asperformance,the DBA's are standard 9 groove discs.. have not noticed any noise from the pads as not stud on them heavy yet.with regards the differencefrom the down pipe the turbo does stay on it alot more and quicker. stiggy
