Fabspeed, Cargraphic or What???

What's up fellow Turbo Lovers,

I am about to do my 40k service and found out what's entailed (removal of exhaust, air box, 2k etc) Anyway I thought of getting a new exhaust put on to save on labor, since there already there.

Now I could go with Fabspeed put in the air intake kit, headers and exhaust for around 5k. Plus a flash form EPL.

Or, I could go with a Cargraphic exhaust, a BMC filter, no headers for around 5k. Plus a flash from EPL.

This is a question of money and better performance. I would like to see what you all think and entertain any other options.
Let's keep all options under 9k.

Let the advice begin!

I'd do Switzer Exhaust, BMC, No Headers, and an EPL tune.

I LOVE the sound of my Switzer!

I have no clue, I know that I have 100 cell cats and they drona like crazy, and they really look like chinese part.
I would never spend a dime on them.
I saw europipe and car graphics, but I can't compare the sound as both cars had big turbos.

if you're going to stay with an EPL tune and tony is going to give you a deal on a re-tune, then you should call him and ask him about what packages he would suggest. if you spend 6k you can get the SPi L2 packages wich includes turbos, tune, fpr, exhaust, bmc intake and spark plugs --- but then you'll need another clutch. my suggestion: exhaust and reflash but don't spend 5k, then take the xtra money and buy some pss10's and you'll come to see how planted the car can feel at speed. you should be able to get all of that done including the install for 9k.

I love the sound of the Cargraphic system.

John @ Speedtech can also set you up with a package including our flash!

+1 and EPL flash. For your 9K target you can do a K24/18g or billet K16 package. Software, turbos, clutch, FPR, exhaust, P&P manifolds.
