Hi Richjask,
The D-sport exhausts are a straight swop, even the load one isn't that load. The cat is in the down pipe that comes off the turbo, its very restrictive, if your planing on big power gains then throw it in the bin and get a rally down pipe. Whatever performance modifications you put on will always be restricted by this fluffy little cat. I have two types of down pipe in stock just not listed yet on website. ![]() Hope this helps. Happy Motoring Tim/Japaneazi |

So Tim, what was the different about those 2??
How bout the dump-pipe just let it out to atmosphere? I used this one but not sure the advantage/disadvantage but the sound is great (when full boost) |

Hi i_projex,
The differances are the one on the right has bigger pipework less bends, and both outlet pipes are in the one, gasses straight out no messing. The one on the left has more corners and smaller piping so slighlty less flow. Both are good and do there jobs well, so if you want maximum performance go for the one on the right. want just a few mods the one one the left will do you just fine. There's always the atmospheric dump valve for a great sound. Each to there own on the dump pipe, i can't really see any advantage or disadvantage myself, but as long as your happy. Cheers Tim/Japaneazi |

one more thing Tim,does changing the down pipe increase the sound too much?
(bloody noise regulations) |
