is it worth it?? ((exhaust))
Hi, I have a revolution 3" centre pipe and there 3" backbox on my99 sti, is it worth buying there 3" down pipe as well??
will I notice much difference with it on?
or what route would you go for £200
mods so far are the exhaust, k&n pannel filter, 225 fuel pump, knock link.
thanks ian

I dont mind about the mot, as there are easy enough to change over, i am just worried that the exhaust will be tooo quite for me, on my old v5 sti i have the h&s decat downpipe, resonated centre section and h&s bbox, will the revolution 3" turbo back one be any louder?

£200 for a full turbo back system is a tad optimistic. You'll be looking at second hand systems for that price, but there is nothing wrong with that. I would recommend the full decat and remap option it's the standard scooby protocol

Yes gasses do need to get out quickly....
However fitting a 10" center pipe for example will not get the gases out quickly just because the hole is bigger, you will need enough pressure there to push it out.
3" is said to be a tad bit too wide so a 2.5" was just right for any power levels under 350BHP...
I changed my Blitz Nurspec R (3") system for a 3" downpipe and 2.5" center...and the difference in low rev power was unbelievable...
i am ure someone can clarify this...

Hey Da One,
Was thinking about doing the mod's you've done already (K & N and revolution exhaust EXCLUDING downpipe). What bhp did you get from the changes, was the throttle response and spool up better and how much did it cost ?
My car is (or will be !) an '01 WRX, but at least it'll give me some idea of what to expect.
Finally, does you're car pass it's MOT in it's current form ?
Cheers mate.

If you don't want a quiet exhaust you bought the wrong system, the Revolution is considered to be one of the quieter systems.

why do you want a resonated center section?
H&S is loud, also check out www.scoobyworld.co.uk - Afterburner Vortex is spose to be good, although made by H&S for Scoobyworld..
