Lots of fans of the AMS widemouth on this forum, but no o2 dump. If you want the exhaust to really scream, the dp you're looking at is def one of the best.

I personally enjoy my xtremeboost o2 dump downpipe, they dont make them anymore tho. Plus it gave me a huge gain in power

Thanks. I am thinking about going ETS o2 dump DP. Now I just found out that my clutch is soon to be going. The has 27k miles n it's OEM I guess that clutch is holding up pretty good. So what clutch does the X is good with. My boy with a 9 say the ACT HD s good but dk if it's good for the X. HELP

Without knowing what you're using the evo for, there isn't going to be one right answer.

Spirited driving/autox the Spec 3+ or Clutchmaster FX400 are good choices. Possibly new CMC.

Drag strip demon hitting 9's all day a twin or triple clutch is in order. Definitely need a new CMC.

And there's everything in between.

Identify what you're using the car for, and use the search function. This forum's been around for years, any question you can come up with has probably been answered 20 times.

Ok cool. Most like the car is just for daily driving n of course some racing. But I'm gonna do some more searching before I go into any final decesion making. Thanks a lot for the advise.

any plans for bigger turbo? if you are going t3-t4 a stock replacement downpipe will not fit. if you are keeping it stock frame turbo AMS looks the best IMO


For DD my Act HDSS 6 puck is Great. id recommend this clutch to anyone.
I haven't been on the track with my Act but i couldn't imagine there being a problem with it.

what are your power plans for the car? if you are looking to go high whp id go with a twin disc. and you will most likly need a replacement CMC i would get that done with your clutch install.
