I've been reading and searching, but is there any actual gain in upgrading or custom building a
larger diameter charge pipe? I saw Schwing had one on his old *sniffle sniffle* TT
I was kind of curious if this was something that is all bling and no bang, or if done well with a custom setup, could produce some decent benefits. I ask because I'm going crazy ordering, bending, welding, and fabbing exhaust and harness cage components right now and can't stop myself
It's just too much fun

Did you see the data on that???..>>
The guy that did the pipe up wasn't happy. I think if you make it better you slow the velocity and other bad flow things happen. The Muffler realy seems to have no detrimental affect..

I did. I understood that to mean the aftermarket dropped the pressure in the system, which was not
so good. I thought that was a relatively old project, though, and was trying to see if anything new had come forward since then addressing those issues. Looks like not though. Oh well. I'll just have to stick with my other 30 projects I'm doing And I swear I'll get those gauges in before August
