Test Pipe
I've heard them on the WRX's, STI's, and other turbo'd cars with an exhaust + testpipe and it sounds freakin great. Just wanted to know how it would sound on our cars. Currently running a Fujitsubo exhaust.
Will it dirty up the rear bumper really bad?
How bad does it smell, and is it very noticable?
Thanks!

It will add a few dbs and probably a check engine light. It does smell different. I've had several people point out the smell to me so i assume a cop could smell it too. It does require frequent soot removal from the back of the car in my situation.

what exactly is a test pipe?
A test pipe is "just a pipe" that replaces the catalytic convertor. Hence, increased dirtiness, smell, decibal and on top of that adds a couple of ponies to your car.
hope that helps!
