what is downpipe, sig catback....

Currently I am running Helix downpipe, Vishnu sig catback and all with the stage 0+ map.

When my cat delete pipe arrives later this week should I expect my peak EGTs to go up, down, or stay the same?

what are the bold faced terms and what is he talking about exactly?

Do a search

Anyhow - a Downpipe is a pipe in the exhaust system that connects the turbo to the exhaust, sig catback is just short for the Vishnu(a brand) "Signiture" Edition of there CATBACK- a is part of the exhaust that connects the rear cat to the rest of the exhaust, and consists of an intermediate pipe and a axelback/muffler ...

Cat Delete pipe = Replacement for the cat that has no material in it - freeer flowing exhaust = more power.

EGT's = Exhaust Gas Tempuratures ...

Might want to do a search before you get mad flamed ...

It's a ecu map that comes with the Vishnu tuned Xede unit. Here is the description from Vishnu's website.

"This map is designed for a cat-back and downpipe equipped Lancer Evolution running 91 octane fuel. The brass restrictor pill in the boost line just before the factory boost control solenoid must be removed. In addition to raising boost by approximately 1-2psi and holds it more constantly to redline. It also induces a more aggressive timing and fuel mapping values. Use only with premium unleaded fuels. "
