dp's hands down! dont need better charge pipe or dv's unless you are producing alot more boost over stock or your dv's are leaking

sweet, i think since im only at 91 oct im gonna at highest go to map 5, only have a drop in filter for now. if it feels like to much i will just go back to map 3 and be safe lol.

dp's... chargepipe/dv has no performance adding benefits

Daya · 10-08-2009, 02:26 PM

downpipes for sure, if you start to hit 15 PSI then you will want to upgrade your DV as well

yea but that also puts more strain on your turbos, so thats why its more important to free up the exhaust and help the turbos out, the stock dv's are pretty reliable until they start leaking boost, plenty of people have full bolt on's including jb3 with stock dv's

if your dv's arent leaking boost now, then you are going to get zero gains out of upgrading them.

Craig@SupremePower · 10-08-2009, 02:38 PM

inexpensive upgrade i say do em...
