Hmm, I never heard that. I noticed gains when I bolted mine up, granted I also installed my exhaust, but it allows more flow through the exhaust, which isn't a bad thing.

A Turbo Back Exhaust (bolt on from the turbo to the exhaust) is the best bang for the buck mod you can do with our cars since the stock parts are so restrictive. Its worth the money if your looking to make more powa.

I had a someone tell me the same thing, but I was like you don't even know what you're talking about. Every little bit helps especially when you get a tune.

Seems very costly for 9whp and 5ftlbs. I could live without (and would barely notice) the 9whp and 5ftlbs. I'd rather pocket my $400 plus dollars. Just sayin.... IMO.... If someone was going to upgrade the turbo then I could see the benefit.
