I have a 94 uk turbo rated @ 208 Bhp standard. The mods i have done are Jap Inovations open wastegate decat downpipe, Magnex decat centre section, Magnex back box, Hks superflow induction kit, Dawes Manual boost controller set @ 13 Psi running on shell optimax. The power figure reached at the powerstation meet on Sat 18th was 272 Bhp so i think its really worth it.

I put a 3" D/P and exhaust on from Revolution.The difference was VERY evident. I did before and after rolling road figures and went to a lot of effort to quantify the gain but the R.R. I was then using had issues with repeatability. Coupled with a K+N panel filter I believe the total gain was between 16 and 25 bhp. It was very worthwhile even if it was short of the "up to 39bhp" claimed by Revolution.
The D/P,exhaust and panel filter have been my best single mod so far.

Question

Are there any gains to be made from a downpipe on jap
import vehicles or do they generally have performance
downpipes on them already?
