Intake or Cat back??
« on: February 19, 2010, 09:01:03 pm »
I've been going a bit mad lately hence my non stop posting  :rolleye:

Question is... I have a 3in dp and cat mated to my oem cat back. I want some more sound and power is always nice  :evilgrin: Should I go for a cat back (thinking blueflame or pipewerx) or should I get an intake (would be ITG or BSH) ??

Opinions on both really re which would suit my needs best... HELP

Thanks again for any input  :drinking:

id go intake and ITG!

if you get the zorst you might as well get the full turbo back done at the same time - save you cash on fitting in the long run

Zorst, although I may have the answer.....

Get Pipeworx to bypass the midbox thus giving the noise you require and leaving enough left over to buy an intake.

So you mean get the centre silencer chopped out of the oem exhaust?? I had thought about this a long time ago but didnt know what it would sound like, ie a bit like a jap car... Could give it a go, suppose it wouldn't cost too much, i'll get a quote :smiley:
