question about header/dp
this summer im thinking about going with zzp midlength header/dp combo with 1.75 stainless steel with no cat stainless steel 3inch dp with 2.5 exit to bolt stock exhaust im just wondering if i will lose boost or not? also with current mods what hp gain do u guys think i will get from this combo?

sorry if its a dumb question kinda new to doing mods

i heard catless can get raspy...and you dont gain that much more hp going catless. Not sure about boost, but remember boost is not power

If you show less boost pressure on your gauge after exhaust, trust me, you will be feeling more power than before. You will be flowing more air

you absolutely will see less boost. boost is a measure of restriction in simple terms. lose restriction, lose boost. doesn't mean you're going to make less poewr, and doesn't mean it won't put you in your seat. just means you're making more power more efficiently.

i put on a pacesetter header and 3 inch downpipe with 2.5 exit(bolts onto my stock exhaust) i lost 2 lbs of boost. kept all the power though. this exhaust will do wonders for freeing up power.
