Exhaust Advice.

[P1E]

I had my car at an exhaust place yesterday getting my tip moved to fit my new rear bar.

When it was up on the hoist, I noticed that my exhaust isn't as complete as I thought it was.

I have a 5-inch HKS Supper Dragger and then 3.5-inch to the cat, but from the cat to the turbo is still stock.

I was advised by the exhaust place to put a stainless 3.5-inch dump pipe from the turbo and whatever else is needed to the cat and this will result in a power increase of around 10-15%.

Is this accurate, or are they just chasing a sale that isn't really going to benefit me?

They quoted $550.00 for the parts and labour. I don't know what this includes exactly as I am a fair n00b.

Just looking for some advice. Cheers.

i dunno about 10-15 percent

i bought a dump pipe off batmbl on these forums and had it installed for cheaper than that

glad i did;

a Dump and Front pipe from the turbo to the cat is one of my first mods on a car. I had a significant power increased from doing this modification.

So hes in no way talking sh1t to you, i would highly recommend it (get him to punch out your cat as well =) )

However, i think the price he has quoted you is a bit rich.

I paid $300 for a stainless steel 3" dump/front pipe for my car. If your able to, you can fit it yourself, but otherwise, i would shop around before spending $500+ dollars for that mod.
