ams or cobb dp ?

i noticed the ams has a flex section and the cobb doesn't. will that cause any issues?. this is going to be setup with a RRE hfc + tomei exhaust.

i'm assuming the ams will give a few more hp?

AMS' is an o2 eliminator downpipe whereas Cobb's is just a regular downpipe.

So yes, AMS will give more HP, I have one I'd recommend it highly.

ok i'll go with the ams, did you guys need to buy a new turbo to dp gasket, or did you re use the stock one? i only have 1500 miles on my evo so it should be good still right?

The gasket is fine; but I assume you're referring to the turbo to o2 housing gasket since the stock downpipe attaches to the o2 housing, not turbo.

It's been said, but I'll say it again...

AMS all the way. The stock O2 housing is tiny compared to the AMS.

Pictures worth 1000 words?










btw: I can fit my whole arm in the AMS one.
