Newage exhaust Q adding to the prodrive?
Hi All,
I have a 05 reg uk300, with the PPP as std, I have bene doing a lot of thinking about changing the exhaust, ideally would like to keep the prodrive back box and replace the other sections, i.e. centre pipe, middle de cat pipe or/and even downpipe. I understand it would have to be 2.5".
Just after peoples views, good/bad, what gains theve noticed etc as I am aware many just go for a whole new turbo back system in 3".
Hope this makes sense
Cheers

What gains from 3" against 2.5"? 3" is louder than 2.5",2.5" will be restrictive at around 400bhp+(on some cars make with 2.5" 450bhp)
On 3" you will be restrictive,just your pocket(i mean deep pocket)

Thanks for your reply, yes noise is a factor for keeping the 2.5", I believe the prodrive is 2.5" therefore would go for the rest in the same yes, are you saying you would recomend a remap after swapping just the middle cat and centre section ? I woul dof thought a remap would be a must if I did the downpipe/cat.

But if you want change Downpipe to Decated Downpipe,you will need remap.

I've got the prodrive back box on mine with a full decat. The only part which is 3" is the turbo downpipe, but that goes down to 2.5" before the next section joins it. Mines a 05 WRX with TD05 and some STI parts and runnin 317bhp at 1.5bar. A 3" system would lose you a little bit of torque over a 2.5" at these kinda power levels too
