Exhaust system - Miltek to Blueflame

(1/4) > >>

Tfsi_Mike:

Right then...

I currently have Miltek TBE. (Non res.)

I want to swap to Blueflame.  Ive read & heard the BF downpipe is 'true' 3" unlike the Miltek?
I dont have any issues with the cat back part of the miltek.  The bracket on the DP though has snapped and
has already been welded once.

Ive located a Blueflame 3" decat dp. The plan is to sell the miltek system to fund the rest of the blueflame system.

Do you think there would be a noticeable performance difference in 2.75" miltek & 3" blueflame?

Do I try and be paitient and wait till ive got the complete blueflame system together or would it be worth swapping the miltek DP with BF and getting a connector to my miltek until i have pennies for rest of the blueflame...

Bit longwinded lol but it makes sense to me  :signLOL:

Comments appreciated  :happy2:

bacillus:
Apparently you may lose a little low end torque with the larger diameter dp.

Something else to think about thanks

Is there any compensation available for the loss of torque with more aggressive mapping?

bacillus:
What you lose at the low end is supposedly compensated by increased torque at the higher rpm end.

Janner_Sy:
Lower low end torque = better traction.
