TBH they could be better, i have one and the step from the collector to the flange is about a half inch, which could be better if it was a gradual bore change rather than a step

also, they sit bloody close to the ground with having 4 pipes beneath the sump rather than 2, no multi story carparks

when fitting these
its got to heat up before it produces decent power, also when cold
it fills with air and realeases it as it heats up when its hot the pressure is constant as the air has expanded

when cold it sounds liek its blowing but it isnt

just something to put your minds at ease about them
