Test pipe install...need advice

hey guys,

Im installing a test pipe so i was just wondering how many gains should i expect.
I have an aem V2, comptech exhaust, and am planning on installing the test pipe also.

Is there anything i shud be warned about before i install the test pipe? I heard that there might be a smell coming from it or somethin like that..
emissions doesnt matter to me lol

Test pipe will not do much.
Doing PCD is what you are thinking about, regarding emissions and smell.

Is it resonated or non-resonated (straight pipe)?

Test pipe, easy install, nothing special or surprising. Most gains would be 1-2 HP.
