[s-cars] Stebro vs. Stromung exhaust

[mlp qwest]

It's just occurred to me that while I no longer have ready access to a stock
exhaust mit the after turbo sniffer pipe, I have somehow acquired several
fairly sensitive looking analog manometers, i.e. a 0 to 50" H2O (0 to @ 1.85
psi); a 0 to 80 inches H2O (@ 0 to 2.9 +/- PSI); and 0 to 5 psi and 0 to 15
psi.  If there's a lister in the Denver area with a stock exhaust, on of
these ought to be able to record a fairly accurate back pressure figure for
a stock system.  If someone else has got an extra down pipe bung hole in one
of the Stormrung systems to which we can fit a brass 1/8th or 3/16ths nipple
to run a pressure line to, we could also get a figure for the Stromrung
exhaust.

~Without question there is no other choice besides Stromung.

~To the extent you can't afford the full turbo-back setup then I suggest
~you read my exhaust FAQ at urs4.com.

~In summary (from least, ~$75, to most ~$1,250 + install, pricey)...

~Stage 1) gutted cats,
~Stage 2) custom 3" cat back (w/ or w/o intact cats),
~Stage 3) Stromung

~It is that simple. Don't reinvent the wheel (exhaust system). I have had
~all of the above. The value prop for the 3" (gutted, factory) cat back
~system (using one straight through 3" offset in / center out muffler) is
~tough to beat, and although I've gone stromng (it is a diminishing
~return, but the best one out there, and I am totally happy to be there)
~you might be happy at Stage 2. FWIW, Stage 3, with straight pipe in lieu
~of cat, is where I'll be for a long time to come.
