Slightly Off Topic here

Does anyone have any ideas of the BHP gain once these are fitted?

From memory, not a lot unless you re-map to take advantage of the freer air flow, and even then it's not much on its own as it's the exhaust side which is limiting.

You really need to do it in conjunction with removing the pre-cats and improving the exhaust to see the real benefits - with a remap of course to take advantage of the freer flow.

I wondered.

Exhaust is a milltek - im having custom decats made amd the intercoolers will go in when I do the timing belt

The remap is last on the list (before the respray that is)

Thx for the info :thumbs:
