That vishnu makes good stuff, as far as the cobb accessport im still skeptical about its tuning since it does not adjust over all the parameters of the motor.

well i say go with access port damn if i had the 555 bills i would buy it. as for the up pipe if you really want to spend the money i would go perrin i have heard lots of good things about it. as for my setup i have a stock gutted down pipe with no probs. which is what i recommend i mean why spend a wad of cash when you can save and spend the cash on something else. good luck
peace

Its good to see you got your car fixed fron the tire tread mishap. Im pretty sure the only problem you could have is if you install the exhaust before Access port you may need to reset the ecu (no big deal). You will also have to do a cel fix with the upipe (not sure about the down pipe). Hopefully someone else can shed more light on the subject because I havent done the turbo back yet I just know what Ive read here. Also Ive heard of differences on 04 from 02-03. Make sure you dont get on it before you reach 1000 miles and you might want to wait that long to install mods. Im not sure if its bad to mod before breakin.
