Hey Guys, Was thinking on de-baffling the charge pipe on my LCR. Has anyone noticed a difference in performance and noise doing this mod?
Is it easy to do I have heard you need to place a sleeve inside is this correct??

Cheers

If you really want to do it, cut the end off the pipe that has the silencer on and get another piece of pipe welded on in it's place.

I have a polished debaffled charge pipe its actually just a straight though pipe made from scratch by "Feel", Since fitting it have not noticed any gains in performance just a slightly louder turbo spool and whistle sound, so if you want performance gains then dont bother but for sound go for it.

I had the Feel Heavy Industries Inc. 'Prototipo' Charge Pipe and the other benefit was that it was polished and looked 'bling' under the bonnet [B)]
