Stage 2 with just DP?

DirtySoap · 06-17-2008, 06:56 PM

Am I able to run the Cobb or Perrin stage 2 map off the Accessport with just a downpipe? Or do i need a more free flowing catback as well to not overboost?

You can run the downpipe with stock catback on all previous years. This shouldn't be any different for 08.

Im running the Perrin S2 file on their 2 piece twin cat DP and stock exhaust. So far so good.

Do you know if your going over the boost that the map puts you at in 3rd or 4th gear pulls? Thats what happened to me in my WRX. Its no big deal i'm just wondering before i buy

. In fact it might be a nice way to get a little more power.

I used to see less boost when running the stock catback on my 06 WRX, not more.
