Default Questions and recomendations, Hawkeye STI Exhaust?

Hi all, I have a Hawkeye STI and am looking to get a turbo to back box system (which i have changed and is a H&S Afterburner Vortex from Scooby world) I have been quoted £471.00 by Pro Speed Cardiff which includes a 200 cpsi sports cat. Which will pass an MOT (apparently).

A few Questions / concerns I have are as follows..

1. What power gain can I expect from a turbo back system?

2. Is it safe to drive the car without a map with said system?

3. Has anyone here had an exhaust from pro speed if so are they any good? or can you recomend a better system for the money?

I would appreciate your thoughts or recommendations.

Cheers guys

Ben

It will need a map if your taking the cats out even if your replacing with a sports cat, No gain in doing so if its not mapped. If its done correctly you would see a massive increase in bhp and torque, anything from 320-360 bhp. would also be good practice in change the standard air filter to a performance panel one IE K&N or green.

Prospeed also botched the last exhaust they did for me on my S202, a right tale of woe, I won't go into detail but the car had to make 3 visits there and was never completed properly.

I lost patience in the end, perhaps they've got better I hope for your sake they have.

Below is a link to my thoughts on Prospeed

I would go for a good quality system such as Milltek, H&S etc before Prospeed.
