Going back to stock catback with a custom tune?
Hello,
I currently have an ecutek tune for headers/overpipe, frontpipe, and catback. I was just wondering how me going back to a stock catback would effect the car since that's not what the tune was made for. I understand there are basically no gains to be had from the catback, nor is the stock catback really restrictive. So would everything be good? I think I'm over the loud exhaust sound, even with my Q300... Do you guys think me going back to stock from the Q300 even tone the car's sound down a noticeably? Thanks |

Not your exact same problem but I switched to a TRD catback (more or less same restriction level as stock one) from a custom one after having it tuned. The car has been fine for over a year and a dozen track days after the switch. I felt like I lost little to no power in doing so (cant compare with numbers, the difference would be so small that day temp or % humidity could skew the results).
