Turner Test Pipes
Well, I finally got these installed a couple days ago. It's a bit louder on a cold start, definitely louder when you give it some gas and the smell is not unbearable. Unfortunately, I can't say I notice THAT much of an increase in power. I do notice that I get the revs up higher much quicker than before, but I can't say the butt dyno notices THAT much of an increase in speed for those revs. Does that make sense? Maybe I'm just nuts or just expected to get a huge difference in raw power. Either way, I'm enjoying the new mod and will be adding the green filter, pullies and possibly a tune.

Let's say you gained 15 rwhp up top. If you are making in the 350 rwhp range, you are talking about a 4% gain. Not many people can feel that kind of a gain and you are right that it won't be dramatic. Add a tune and you might get anothe 10-15 rwhp. Added to the test pipes, the total is more noticeable.

You really notice it when you get in a car that doesn't have it. I drove a friend of mine M3 that was bone stock, definitely felt a difference. My car felt like it was chomping at the bit, while his was on a Valium.
