i have a Borla exhaust on its way and the Stillen Gen 3 CAI sitting in my room waiting to be installed.

 

Hfc

 

make Cobb AP your last mod if you're getting it for performance purpose (which is clear since you got borlas on)
FI HFC's FTW.. did you consider test pipes?

 

nope, im not real familiar with what does what and what is the best setup, it seems most on here have an exhaust, HFC's and intakes. Im not looking for an insanely loud car but id like some extra power. Are test pipes an alternative to HFC's or just another thing you can add ?

 

HFC's and Test pipes are interchangeable. HFC's leave a gasoline smell coming out of the back of your car from what I've heard. I went with HFC's as they yield great results without the smell consequence.

 

HFC's leave a gas smell or they dont, you have them in there for both ?!

 

Test pipes is basically replacing the stock cats with hollow pipes rather than cats

Pro's:
- A little more HP due to even less restrictive flow
- Cheaper in price since theyre less complex to manufacture

Con's:
- Louder than HFC's and might introduce rasp (FI has a resonated version.. no personal experience with that though)
- They wont pass smog tests so you're going to have to find a way around that

 

^ and yes, they do smell.. just a matter of getting used to them

 

get all your performance parts done right now then get the Cobb, however I believe some vendors are having sales on the Cobb AP till the end of the month

 

id rather spend the $ for HFC's since im not looking for a loud sound, and the gas and smog violations dont seem worth it with the test pipes

 

yeah test pipes TEND to get ricey and a headache
good luck with the order and make sure you post pix and vids.. you owe it to the forum haha
cheers,

 

hopefully ill have it all installed in the coming week or so, g/f's dad and myself should be installing the CAI tomorrow.

 

definitely get the HFC's, i have berks and love em, car sounds great! definitely think twice about getting the cobb ap when your ready. i have it and did some testing.. not looking too good for cobb. will be posting up my test results soon.

 

send link of HFC website.

 

wtf is this suppose to mean...
