Will a bigger downpipe help my FPGreen gain power?

So I have all the bolt ons necessary for my turbo upgrade. I'm even replacing the high flow cat to a test pipe.

Everyone says it isn't worth the upgrade on stock turbo.

Is it worth it when you upgrade to a bigger flowing turbo?
1-5 whp it's not worth it. If I get over 10whp I think it's worth it!

Anyone have results?

Generally, most tuners you talk to will recommend upgrading the downpipe the same time you swap the turbo because of the labor. My downpipe sat in a box of over a year until it was time to install the BBX full.

Correct. If you plan to upgrade the DP at all, do it when the turbo is out, cuts the labor costs. I'd say it is probably worth it to upgrade for an FP Green.
