Exhaust vs Down pipe

sweet08 · 08-24-2011, 10:26 PM

I'm not sure what I like more for my next mod. I have a BM DCI so far. After some sifting thru random topics I'm open for suggestions for an AR Catless DP or an exhaust, Turner MS/Corsa/HKS.
What's everyone's take on this?

A JB4 is next on my list. I'm just weary of voiding my warranty........

just curious, has anyone on this site had their warranty voided resulting from having their tune in?

stop bein a newb, you turn it off for an oil change, and yank it if it's a fuel pump problem.

Depends on what you're going for. The tune will undoubtedly give you the most power of any mod. Downpipes after that. Exhaust is more for sound.

The JB3/4 is not complicated to remove, check out the DIY section. Great inexpensive way to get extra power out of a 335.

A tune takes 20 min to take out with self-labor. DP's can take 2-3 hours and cost $$$ to take out. Clearly going the tuning route will be much safer from getting your warranty void.

If your worried about warranty, then just get a tune as its easy to take off, as for the exhaust its a PITA to take it out because to be honest some dealers even void warranty for a lousy exhaust...
