dont know exactly but it should be the same as the other manufacturer like apexi or greddy. It kicks pretty good over 180 km/h.

Nice job man! As soon as I saw the welds I thought "have I actually seen somebody with enough ***** to make their own?!?!" The only thing that might kill HP is that it's all straight piping welded together not mendrel (sp?) bent, this will be harder on air flow but I suspect only 2 or 3 HP loss.

Being that you made that yourself thats pretty damn good. Only part I don't like about it is those welds otherwise I couldn't tell the different between yours an a big name companies. Nice work man!

I'm also wondering about the lights by the license plate?
I'm like......."WTF is that?!" Is it aftermarket or stock for RX's sold in Europe?
