No, but I'm not willing to waste $165 for a pair of BMCs, another $695 for a Evoms V-Flow kit, and $100 more for dyno time just to win my own bet.

I'd consider doing the drop-ins, but to be a valid comparison the parts need to compared on the same vehicle (with the same mods). Mine's bone stock until tomorrow, when I hope to install the secondary cat bypass tubes if time permits.

thanks for putting this thread together. I've been lurking the mods for awhile now and getting ready to pull the trigger ... hoping to see your dyno results and they'll be a big influence on me. I'm planning to start with Cat Bypass for sure, considering Cold Air Intake and IPD but less certain on these. Then, once the hardware is done and settled in I'll follow up with a tune later this summer. cheers

Did my bypass pipes last weekend as the first mod on my CTTS, and immediately noticed a difference in improved performance and responsiveness. Bypass pipes are the mandatory first mod. I am having some ARP diverter valves installed today; I wimped out from doing them myself, but these are the foundation for a future tune. I'll probably do the IPD plenum and then a tune, in that order, and then call it a day on performance mods.

np. I am eagerly awaiting this too.
I have second cat delete pipes coming in today, as well as SR1 exhaust, all by Leistung.
Already have KN filters in, but was thinking of a full kit some time if price/benefits are justifiable. Planning for ECU tune within next few months for sure. If I do, I will add on the Diverter valves change too (the serviceable ones).
Last thing would be the IPD Intake plenum, as I hope to have some specifics and hard data on it from you fine folks, to make my decision easier.

+1 for 2nd bypass pipes and EVOMS CAI makes a world of difference. Larger intercoolers on the turbo and a tune would get it into Turbo S territory.
Never a true believer the IPD plenum could really make another 30hp/30lbs tq.
