Default Afterburner Vortex on MY03 STI



The wife got me this for my birthday, I`m well chuffed. Now got a Group N for Sale.

The angled exit takes a little bit of getting used too. Seems to have made it a little more responsive/less laggy. Could this be possible??

Very nice indeed

Have you got any pic's from the side ?
I am interested to see how far the pipe sticks out the back.......
Does it stop level with the end of the bumper or stick out slightly ?
Oh and you have not commented on the sound

Cheers
Simon

A more Deeper Sound than the group N, I like it alot!!!!!

Doesn`t seem too intrusive in the car at constant revs, but haven`t been on the motorway yet!

It`s almost level with the back of the car, i`ll take a side shot tommorrow morning at work.

i've also noticed that the car is more responsive especially during the mid range. at last weekends scoobycity rolling road day my car ran an extra 10% of mid range torque with the Vortex over my previous exhaust.

TSL`s Group N with 4" Tailpipe. Look on TSL`s website www.tsl-motorsport.co.uk

The ABV is deeper noted.
