    About to Order CPE TBE Need Some Help

    What I meant with regards to the 3-4 hp difference was not the complete system gain itself, but rather my assumption of the difference between a system with their hi-flow cat vs going catless. I don't know what the actual difference is. Maybe someone has some dyno info.

    About to Order CPE TBE Need Some Help

    I don't have any experience with the 12" muffler. Actually, I don't think CP-E currently offers them as an option on their website anymore because there was such little demand for the 12" muffler. Also about 2 months ago, they changed their turbo manifold flange from fabricated to cast (to...

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    For the records, and I know I am going to jinx myself, but the last 6, 7 times I had the car out.........no trace of smoke at idle. I don't know if it had anything to do with it, but I had the DP sitting in the corner of my garage for half a year, and when I installed it, I used a ton of PB...

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    I was wondering the same. From my understanding, the pcv valve vents back into the air intake for emmision purposes, which in turn enters the intake manifold, cylinders, etc. I looked for oil in my IC when installing the DP, but did not notice any.

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    Before I begin, let the records show that I'm not calling anyone out in the information you're about to read so don't take it the wrong way. It is purely to get a better understanding of pcv valve systems varying from vehicle to vehicle :) : So how come WRX's or other vehicles don't experience...

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    Did anyone with the CPE catted DP notice smoke at idle for the first few drive cycles? I've been driving with my digital camera to capture it, but the last 4 times I've jumped out of the car to catch it on video, and its no where to be found anymore. Maybe I jumped the gun on this one. Could...

    What are know reasons for oil smoke spewing from exhaust at idle?

    Well, I'm one of the lucky ones to have smoke appear at idle after about 20-30 seconds the same day after installing a catted dp. I'm convinced that whatever it is was hidden with the two stock cats in place. I've checked it every time I'm parking the car, and so far I'd say about 70% of the...

    Accessport Questions

    Another COBB AP question If the original "stock map" was saved to the AP, and the car's ECU was then flashed to stage 1+, then could the ECU be flashed to the stage 2+ without unmarrying the AP (will the "stock map" be lost when directly switching from Stage 1+ to Stage 2+. I understand that...

    P0302 - So Stressed

    Thats a sure fine way to tell if its an ignition coil. It may take 2 or 3 engine cycles for a cel code to show again, but if the cel tells you it changed cylinders, then you've got a bad coil. I haven't looked at the MS3's yet, but they're probably as easy as pulling the coil off the spark...

    Yea, someones got to have some results by now. C'mon, anyone who ordered one already got their SA-AP with day-before shipping. Swampass- are you considering a jump-jacks feature? (Choo-choo-choo-choo) That might swing my decision. No more waiting for trains to cross!! Might make oil...
