Downpipe questions, Lindsey Racing.

Has anyone done any dyno testing to prove whether or not a 3" downpipe makes enough difference to justify the cost?

In a few weeks I'll be getting exhaust, most likely from Lindsey, and I want/need to know if the $410 price tag is justifiable.

this is a great question, and i have yet to see an actual before/after dyno comparison where the only change was the downpipe.

perhaps you could test this for us?

Great answer.

And by great answer I mean totally irrelevent and useless based on the thread question at hand.

Consider that the SFR is basically the same thing as the Fabspeed for even more money.
