Front Pipe or Crawford BPB
 

Hey guys,

I am slowly building up my BRZ. So far I got the OpenFlash Tablet and the OpenFlash Headers should be arriving sometime this month. I am having a hard time deciding what to get next. Between the Front Pipe and the Crawford BPB, which will I get more bang for the buck?

For Front Pipe I will be going with an Invidia Catted because my headers will already be catless and I enjoy driving with windows down in the summer, I don't want the smell with going completely catless.

BPB, Front pipe is more for sound...

I would go for the BPB first as well, although I did get my EL header + front pipe together before the BPB.

Front pipe will get you more gains than a cat back will... but the PB's will get better gains unless you're running e85 or boost.

what the hell is a BPB?

billet power blocks

It's an intake manifold spacer. Crawford CNC'd them out of billet aluminum and called them billet power blocks.

Fiebruz manifold spacers... cheaper and better than crawfords

With a tune yes...but i was going under the impression that he wasn't doing a tune. Either way can't go wrong with either one but a front pipe is better to do with full exhaust installs...

Link? I couldn't find it on their page.

Not only could I not find them listed on Fiebruz's website but Googling " "Fiebruz manifold spacers" " only returned this thread. Googling
" Fiebruz "manifold spacers" " also only returned this thread. Googling " Fiebruz manifold spacers " (that is, no quotes in the search) returned about 220 hits of which none were helpful that I could see.

Where are these Fiebruz manifold spacers I wonder?

Maybe he meant "fibrous" but doesn't know how to spell?


Nevermind... looks like that's an actual company :D

Ok, I'll bite. Why are they better?
