Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

    Test Pipe?

    Would it be harmful to my car to use a test pipe for longer than a few runs at the track? I know that having some backpressure on your valvetrain is a good thing, but will running a test pipe all the time greatly decrease my engine life? I already have pacesetter headers and a 2.5" exhaust installed...

    Backpressure = Bad, always
    Flow Velocity = Good
    Test Pipe = more emissions into atmosphere, no effect on engine life.

    I think I read that Pacesetter headers have something like miserably small 1" primaries...
