haha maybe on stevie wonder's rollers, mods dont even warrant a remap 
edit- you're not changing cam timing, ignition timing or fuelling.

because a remap will only see only a tiny gain on them mods re maps are only really needed for cams and wilder mods

how can powerflow beat them all, they are not tuned for performance just some guy with no tuning knowledge welding a system to your car

lol, more or less true, but i got my one based on a performance one, only the tip (tail pipe) is different.
No silencers, 2" bore straight through, 3" inwardly rolled, sounds lubly, not loud, not silent, im chuffed with it, and i noticed how the car has benafited from it too.
+ mandrel belt bends
jap zorsts sound hideously loud imo, they dont suit the saxo, especially burnt tip ones, but i'v heard vtr (owned as a run around by the people who done my zorts torque flow) with a jap backbox, 5"+, 2 1/2 inch bore, de-cat, (mk1 vtr with mk2 front) and its.......... LOUD ! mental loud ! i never thought a VTR could sound that loud. It's awefull imo.
And dude, you wont get those gains from the mods you listed, maybe close with the addition of a WILD CAM but not with those, no chance.
