Default AR.48 og AR.63

I have a 2wd cossie with 3" Mongoose, KN, Montune Chip, Turbonetics T34 ar.48, grey injectors, low compression pistons, and ported top (???). Had it on a rolling road and the results were 350bhp@6100 rpm., and 417nm@4400rpm. 1,6 bar.

Will a ar63 exhausthouse be a good upgrade, or won't it make any differance?

depends what you want out of your car really mate.

for better response and less lag, 0-60's i'd use the .48

for more top speed and more power on boost (but with a little more lag) go for the .63

You would need a remap too if you decide to change

I have not got them!

You need to have pocketed pistons for bd14's........BD 10's i think are fine for normal pistons.

What i mean in the statment above is that you don't run out of puff at top end like you do with a .48 housing.

As I told you before Triggerhappy, bigger AR - more power on top.
