Hey Brian,

You guys must have a dyno of this new system at 9psi from your own testing and dyno'ing. Have I just missed it?

Thanks

There are so many factors that influence this decision. He cannot answer this question for you.

If you are savy with mechanical car work then try it. If not then...

Great thread. Thanks for sharing. Can anyone comment on how the Vortech affects the tone or volume of the exhausts? Louder/no change at idle or WOT?
