TBH from the designs i have seen, they dont look like they will flow very well, the metals used feel cheap.

And where not sheep, we all have different types of exhausts:

Magnex, SS, janspeed, Sportex, Jetex, Miltek, OMP group N, scorpion, sebring, Ashley, Piper, Peco. < to name a few.

Where not sheep, we just dont like crapflow.

OMG

hmm everyone says they are shit, maybe thats because they are. I have seen what shit they produce one of my mates had one. just look at the people that have said they are good

stereotypical


Oh and for your information, my mates car lost 10whp* after fitting a powerflow. plus the welds corroded, many blow holes, the fixing bracket fell apart, as they cut and weld shit he had to get a whole new system. the exhaust pipe where they had bent it was very restrictive.

dont post crap, they are shit.

We dont all follow eachother, we just have experience. AND hence all go for the best option.


* the rolling road as done before and after so is accurate



Oh and all those shit exausts on ebay, that look like steve wonder made, 99% are powerflow crap. Any one with a rudimentary knowledge of fuck all knows they are shit.

If your interested in having a 4x 7inch tip, then yes made you do that.

No you should have said remapped. Not much point without uprated cams anyway.

Did the bloke you bought it off give you any proof it had been "superchipped" ? or did he just say it?

Read my first post in the thread. The franchise will mean they are not 'regulated' as such by the same rules. We all know they will claim it etc.. but basically you wont get the same work in one pooflow dealer as one 30miles away usually, depends on how much profit margin the person who has paid to 'sell' powerflow is worrying about/how bothered they are about their staff etc......

I have seen some utterly SHOCKING work by powerflow in 5-6 years, lots of people with void warrenties etc... and a couple of ok ones. So its really a risky one to be dealing with. will it be good or will it be shit?

Chipping is generic, so not ideal. hence why people laugh about it on here.

Mapping on the car for the specific mods is what people all want to do.

Superchips are better than a cheap ebay chip, they are reasonably well respected = hence the silly price tags

so... you can listen to the established knowledgeable members or get a powerflow.

they are no mixed opinions.
