exhaust question

beemteam1001 · 09-04-2008, 10:40 PM

i got the aa tuning high flow exhaust and it only comes with the cat. The rest of the pipes are stock. Should i upgrade the pipes to the headers for more power or better sound?

the aa exhaust is a muffler, with a little bit of piping attached to it.
it is not a cat.

Replacing the rest of the stock exhaust piping will net u very minimal power gains. but deleting a resonator or both will increase sound.

Check out my post, i got the aa exhaust not long ago http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=598086

Might just be better off deleting the second resonator to get more sound.
