Strength in numbers brother. Seeing other opinions and providing what I’ve found.
He was saying it doesn’t increase sound
according to the previous page in this thread, if i am reading correctly it looks like both of those are being said, a front pipe will NOT add sound & a front pipe will NOT add power. Just rephrasing/repeating what i saw previously.
I’m reading it does increase power
thats what i thought. But when someone posted on the previous page do you really gain 12 hp someone said no.
That was before I found 2 sources showing otherwise. It would make sense as there isn’t any sensors measuring air after the cat so it can benefit from the increased airflow without the need for a tune
I have a catless dp that im waiting to install. I have a hondata as well, both of which i am waiting to install. I wasnt going to go with a front pipe but now im thinkin maybe i should for the extra power.
Do it ! You won’t regret it. RV6 makes top notch stuff. Had a full RV6 catless Exhaust system from front to back back in the day on my TL TypeS and it was amazing ! Sound and HP gains were pretty impressive!!
Well i came across a great deal on an HKS Catless, so i went with that. When it comes to Catless to me a pipe is a pipe. But front pipe I think i will go RV6.
this is true to a certain point,a pipe is just a pipe, but the quality of the work done and weld finishes makes a big difference. I’ve seen some pretty crappy weld finishes and rough inside which makes for a lot of airflow noise ect. HKS is good also, so your good to go. Was just letting you know in the case you were on the fence on it. His craftsmanship and quality of work is bar none.
Much appreciated, I have no doubts about it. I have only heard good things about RV6. Im already sold on the front pipe, just gotta place the order.
I have black ceramic coated DP and FP. I also wrapped them in DEI titanium. Do not wrap the catalytic converter though. It is not recommended by DEI to do so. I’ll post pictures soon on my build thread
