I gained 10.8 whp with FIPK and T1R test pipe. Sounds so much better and pulls a lot better.

Must get the TP if you get an intake. Without it you will almost feel the exhaust exit getting slowed at the stock cat!

Keep the stock exhaust and stock tips!!

The berk test pipe comes with a check engine light fix so you get no CEL. And there isn't really a smell unless you put your face up against the exhaust. Its way exaggerated. Why spend twice the money for a heavier more restricting piece? TP ftw.

definitely K&N FPIK ftw. also a high flow cat will free up a few ponies.

There arent really too many dual exhausts out that make any noticable gains. One i know of that makes gains is the T1R Sparrow. They have a new version coming out that has the "dolphin" blue style tips and is designed to be quiet.
I currently have one of the original AEM v1 cold air intakes, and a berk test pipe installed on my car.

is the K&N FIPK worth upgrading to? Would i be likely to see any more gains over my AEM v1 cold air intake or would they be roughly the same?

I agree with the TP deal.... it's cheaper and has provisions so you get no CEL.

I have to disagree. Invidia v3 dual loses power over stock. I dyno'd 196 in my 00 stock, 194 with the invidia
Would this hold true w/ an AP2 ? I know a single 70mm exhaust will make the most power. But as the V3 is 70mm wouldn't it make a slight improvement over stock
