realistically..would a magnaflow + rear section give me hp?

Magicman520 · Feb 22nd, 2004, 09:05 AM

My local tuning shop is mating a magnaflow muffler with a 4 in tip to stainless piping to my stock midpipe for a custom rear section.I have a place racing WAI and stock 5 speed ga16 otherwise. Realistically will i gain any power over stock? If so..any estimates? Anybody else running a setup like this

lets say i throw in some 2inch piping for the midpipe from the exhaust manifold to the rear section...do you think i'd get another hp or 2 out of it?

2" mandrel bent from the cat will gain a solid 8-9 hp

depends on filter, type of CAI, piping size ( i forgot what it was...sorry), and temp...

but it IS a possibility

advance your timing.. get 2" exhaust. if you dont have a CAI.. get one.. replace your fuel filter, re-lube your throttle body.. and you will notice a happy little GA..

Add a turbo.. and then the ga gets pissed off
