It says with a the 3" exhaust, the car should be putting out 275whp. Does this include the 3" midpipe no cats? Also, what should I expect run on the quarter mile; my mods are in my signature. How much hp/tq do you think I'm putting out? Also, I opened my secondaries in the intake manifold because it was reccomended on the vboard. They were saying having them in would blow my motor. It wasn't one person saying this, Like 99% of the board aggress. Thanks.

275 WHP was tested with the 3" Stromung exhaust and midpipe.. Removing the butterflies hasn't hurt any of the Spec Vs local to me yet in almost 8 months now.. I would hate to guesstimate your power as you removed the butterflies which drastically alters torque on the bottom end... best bet, get to a dyno..

I haven't exactly removed them, zip tied them back. I can easily cut it. As a professional, do you reccommend me keeping them or removing them? Can you guesstimate me if i left them there?

Assuming the butterflies were working properlly I would guesstimate in the 255-275 range. Its hard to say honestly as the environmental values play a larger factor as well. i'd be surprised if it wasn't in that range though... The head of R&D for Turbonetics was well aware that some people remove the butterflies for boost and advised against doing so.

Yeah bro my flutterbees have been in since the Turbo install and I have had no issues what so ever with them. If anything like Robert said you will just lose low end TQ.
