tuning advice

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

My standard mk1 172 is currently running a K+N57i.
is it worth my while fitting a silenced/unsilenced decat
to the car with a standard exhaust system?
Will it sound any better? more to the point, will it go any better?

 

[Gary G]

yes and yes....do it :-D

Open induction kits suck in hot air.

prospeed? is that a rave drug??

Will they fit what i want? does the ecu need sorting after ive done all that?

 

[badinvincible]

Prospeed deal in custom exhausts IIRC. Seem to have a very good reputation round these parts.

Consider Hayward and Scott exhausts too, thay have a good reputation as stated by a lot of the guys on here.
