Greddy CatBack with Green Filter
I've been doing some research on upgrading my intake and exhaust, and I have come to the conclusion the I want to get the Greddy (Looks Great) and the Green filter for the intake option. I have a couple of questions that I would appreciate your help on. First of all I don't know much about mechanics and performance...
I have read a lot about losing power by changing the stock intake and exhaust, is this true? Will I feel the diference with changing either one? or both? If so why do you loose power?:confused: The only reason I'm going with the Greddy is for the look and price range. For the intake I don't like how the intakes look, I like the way the engine looks now all nice and neat... Also how much HP will I gain by doing this if you infact you do gain HP. :( |
the Greddy exhaust will only make a few HP if any. It's mostly going to be for looks and sound.
The Green Filter is a replacement drop in filter, not a complete intake. It probably won't make power. Will you notice any gains or "feel" the difference? Probably not. If you do, it's a "placebo" effect. |
sure he will...the exhaust adds 50 hp and the air filter alone will add 47...he he
|
so what do mean when they say that by adding the catback I will loose low end power and gain high end?
|
you may loose a little low end power, but you will be able to feel the diffference up top
|
the exhaust flow tube is a bit big, would it be too big for a 1.3?
i measured mine at 2 1/2" for my B&B and 4in tips (i believe). looks nice and sounds nice! i feel all my gains were mid-high rpm's! my low end still feels like stock (rather slow). god i want a 6 speed LOL!! i told my wife im gonna lease another RX8 after we are done with this lease on this one. |
otrovago, search the vendors section under canzoomer, then look for the stage threads. There is plenty of info on this, in particular stage 1.5 and stage 2. Yes you will reap a H.P. advantage with the Exhaust and a stage 1.5 or 2 when it becomes available! I'm not sure about the Green, although I have it so I won't have to replace it with another filter again.

"WOW" that is not my name above!
|
thanks for the info....
|
Greddy you will actually lose power, i have had buddies dyno with greddy and they lost 3HP
|
So which is a better option...

That might work better for me, I don't want it louder it will be perfect if it is close to stock for me...
|
The Borla is a good choice as well!
