b-pipe installed on my supercharged car!!

i love it you can really feel the difference through the revs alot smoother now!!! it is louder but sounds so good.went for a run this am and it pulls so much better now.that shitty y pipe we had was restrictive and the comptech bpipe is alot bigger.i guess i can really feel it more because i had the throttle body ported last week so more air coming in and going out faster=more hp i dont think youll feel the gains on a na motor but this mod was well worth it!! off to the dyno next monday and will post right after dyno session.

Fookin Eric is well known for waking people up in the early A.M., he is like that anxious puppy dog that wakes up at the crack of dawn and wants some attention...

I noticed "difference through the revs alot smoother now" too. Even though my CLS 6sp is n/a, I can feel slight gains throughout the rev range. However, the droning I had with just the exhaust which was acceptable, increased in RPM range and magnitude. I went with the quiet tips because of my daily commute. When I get on it, I do miss that sound.

When I had my '03 CLS 6sp dyno'd at CompTech last month, they told me that their proto CLS 6sp had dyno'd with as much as 315 WHP on several runs. Their CLS 6sp has CT intake/headers/b-pipe/exhaust/SC/flywheel and is running with no more than 4 lbs boost.

I'm doing the same exact set up on my car. Have you considered on adding a high-flow catalytic converter ??

So, with the Supercharger does it have that "glug glug glug" sound at idle? I still have the stock exhaust, your car must sound intense!

no its got a sweet sound at idle and when you nail it it sounds like a race car you really hear the blower scream as your buried back in your seat.you go through the gears so quickly you have to watch out for flashing lights no im not getting a high flow cat because the stock cat is a high flow unit believe it or not dont waste your money on it just buy a dump from smitty.

But I thought the stock cat is a 2 inch and the header and B-pipe is a 2 and a half.
