How much extra BHP ?

[Whisker biscuit]

Swapped out the janspeed for scorpion, the difference in power was noticeable right away. What kind of BHP can be gained from simple exhaust swap ?

2bhp, with 200bhp in your brain as loud = powa

 

[Martin_172]

As above your probably somewere between -2BHP & +2BHP

It’s actually quieter, the neighbours will be happy.

Can’t believe it’s so noticeable.

Maybe the old one had collapsed baffles or something, if it was really restricted for some reason then replacing it would make quite a big difference.

The diameter of the pipe I think is making the difference.

Was the old one smaller diameter than stock then or something?

People aren't pulling your leg or anything, there's genuinely nothing to be had swapping the exhaust on a 182.

I think the difference you are feeling id due to slightly less back pressure from the larger diameter of the exhaust tubing. Means it will feel more responsive and rev slightly quicker, whether that translates into more power I dont htink it will.

I wouldn't be so sure, the fastest RS I've ever had is my RaceVan which runs a pattern part cheapo from the motor factors

I’ve no idea what’s making the difference but no complaints, think I’ll pull the 182 wheels off and stick the 1.2s on and make the most of it.
