Default Installed the Test pipe

I got an ATP test pipe 3'.

My downpipe flex was out. So i decidedwait for the test pipe before i do the swap. The job was fairly easy. no trouble with hard bolts, rust or anything. I have to mention that i didnt try to take outthe 3 bolts from the cat. and down pipe. I just unbolted the 3 bolts from turbo/cat and the 2 C-clamps on the downpipe. Took me 3 hours. No big deal.

Impressions with the test pipe: From 2.3 k RPM it pushed a lot harder than before.The acceleration in 3rd is awesome from 20MPH to 60MPH. I have to say that i amnot easly impressed, but with the TP i have to admit i can feel the difference.

Noise: i would say that noise is quite normal. Nobody will notice i have a TP. When i gun it. The TP is making a little bit more noise, a bit throaty.

Well i wanted to share...
