Default Test Pipe Thoughts?

Hey guys Ive been throwing the idea around of getting one for a week now. After hearing Matt2's (bottomline56) setup ap2 exhaust, header, intake and test pipe I really started to like it. It has a sort of exotic sound to it which I really like and isnt as loud as my Invidia obviously lol . Jw whats everyone thoughts on it I mean I know its illegal and smells but besides that Ilike them. Your opinion?

Thanks

I've never been able to get past the 'it's illegal and smells' part.

There some high flow converters on the market that allow you to stay legal and don't lose HP.

Magnaflow offers one and Berk Technologies has modified a Magnaflow to S2K specs

Highly don't recommend it. These can cause extreme lean conditions without proper tuning resulting in nothing good. You might gain 1-2 hp, but lose more than that in torque.
