i would agree that if u buy the exhaust alone u r paying close to a grand depending what u go with for about 10 hp give or take?
get a 1+ flash with injectors for $800 if u can install the injectors yourself and get a test pipe for $100 and a forge DV $125 and u are set till summer, then get a FMIC/DSMIC then exhaust last...
i really wished i had dyno'ed my car before and after to see what kind of gains the NS exhaust and Test pipe actually gives, im sure its not much.. but EUROCODE claims up to 48 ft lbs torque increase and up to 19 hp with their TP
im just not seeing how i could have gained that much? i think it spools quicker and i know it cools down quicker because i did some vag com logs of EGTs but it sure as hell didnt feel like 20hp/40ftlbs increase

Hey, well i never got into car modding or anything. I have currently a GS500 motorcycle and if you change exhaust/air filter you need to rejet. Otherwise you will run like crap. But thanks for the info.

RE: exhaust
I understand now. Yeah i know exhaust won't give more than maybe 10hp.. i just didn't know the computer will take care of that (isn't that nice, lol). Anyway i will prob go with the chip first now, i know there is a GIAC and APR dealer both within 20min or so from me. I will prob go with one of those, the APR i belive is $400 and the GIAC is $500.
If i remember correctly the GIAC will give me better top end power (good for 1/4mile) but the APR is better in the low end and i will spool up faster.. correct me if i'm wrong. I just need to decide what i want.
