I have a questions.
1. are the s4 engines auxillary ports activated by back pressure?
2. if so what is the biggest downpipe you could posiblly use before you affect you auxillary ports?

Sometimes they will fully open even with a header and a cat replacement pipe, and sometimes they only open half way, sometimes they just dont open. Its a gamble on whats going to happen.

Tyler: get a header and not a downpipe. Contact admin@fc3s.org and see if hes doing another group buy. If not, they still have kick *** prices.
