i got supercharged but

i got supercharged but I think I fucked up when i started with the whole exhaust parts early on.

I went the cheap route and bumbed a downpipe off of a SS supercharged guy...

DOes anyone think having the lsj header and downpipe is a necissarly a bad thing with my supercharger, do you think it is holding me back a lot from experiencing the total driving capabilities?

just wondering on your all opinions?


Like how can you tell if your getting restrictions from your set up?

alot of you 2.2 guys go from the 2.2 header d/p to the 2.0 header d/p so i guess it gives you some gains, but it wouldn't hurt to get an efter market 2.5" d/p catback w/ an aftermarket header as well

you have a m62 im guessing? i dont think it is really a bad thing since thats what they come with stock on the SS/SC, but depending on your pulley and what not im sure you would get more out of it with a true header and a different downpipe. thats my 2 cents.

congrats on going superchargered tho

change the downpipe...it is a very restrictive part of the exhaust on the LSJ's
