wsp y pipe

after installing a wsp y pipe my ve seems to have lost a little low end torque, is this just characteristic of the y pipe losing backpressure?
does anyone have dynos of the stock ve or with only intake and a dyno with the y pipe?

Auto then yes its noticeable but manual then you should be loving the added kick in the butt dyno.

DOH! he has a 5 speed. In that case you should not feel any power loss only gain as thats what I experianced with my Y-Pipe.

Re: Re: Re: Re: wsp y pipe

it feels like there is more power but it feels like the torque curve peaks at higher rpms, and the torque feels flatter... maybe ill advance my timing a few more degrees to get some lowend back

great

I have an auto and the lowend torque is bad enough already. How would the ypipe work with a supertrapp, where you can adjust the backpressure by adding or subtracting discs?
