Got an 06 6mt with z-tube, pop charger, and an HKS HI Power exhaust being installed in four days. What should be the next mod to compliment my setup?
MD spacer, test pipes, high flow cats, mrev2...????? thanks
test pipes will give you the best gains, but they sound really raspy, emit a lot of smoke, and your check engine light will come on. if that doesn't bother you, go for test pipes.
I have test pipes on my car, and I don't really get any rasp, only a tiny bit at WOT maybe after 5500rpm. As long as you get good test pipes, it won't sound that bad. I really love the sound of my HKS w/ test pipes. I have LaBree resonated test pipes. I would get those or Fast Intentions, just make sure they are resonated. I use the non-foulers so I do not have a CEL. And I do not emit any smoke as far as I know... You might have a little smoking when its new, but after a while it'll go away.
Yes, I still have my stock cats. New cars don't need to be smogged for like 5-6+yrs, or if you sell the car. Unlike my other car that has to smog EVERY year, and it has to go to test only Now that is a bitch putting the cat back on every year...

or consider high-flow cats and mrev2+spacer.
also consider sway bars.
+1. And I can't stand the smell of test pipes.
