Downpipe v complete system
« on: 25 September 2016, 16:25 »
I have Revo stage 2 and BCS Downpipe. Are there any significant gains to be had with the Cat back added.
Old, but a serial modder!

There is probably significant noise to be gained, not power  :undecided:

From what I've heard, the cat back section is very good as standard - most tuners only specify you fit a downpipe for Stage 2 (and most only specify a downpipe for even higher levels of tune).

This coming from a guy with a cat back Milltek on his GTI lol.

I mainly did it for the (much) nicer tailpipes and a bit more sporty sound.
