Ok, I think the next thing to change will be the exhaust system. I plan to go to Powerflow because I want a full system and want to be able to have it how I want...
Ok the idea's I have are, either :
1. a Single exit pipe thats big (jap) and straight through (bit like snowys)
2. a Single rear exit pipe thats bigger than standard but not massive, smaller than the above!
3. a dual exit (a pipe either side) that is pretty small (bigger than standard but not big)
4. a dual exit (a pipe either side) that is big'ish ... not massive but a far way from standard!
Number 3 is the one I think I'd most like... pretty common, but nice imo.
The question is what would the performance gains with the straight through single exit systems be like? Surely because of the way the system is constructed for the dual exit systems (lots more curves) you won't get any performance increases / might lose power???
Finally, what size pipe is best for performance and sound...
Questions are all a bit retarded - sorry about that, but any opinion is welcome.
Thanks,
Paul J

I doubt there is any power to gain on a 1.2 mate. Get it for looks, not for power.

I was more thinking 'losing power?'
coz those pipes at each sides basically come into a center horizontal box... then the pipe twists out each way...

Also on the same subject how much to Powerflow charge for a backbox? Full single system? And centre exit backbox?
