.... no but your exhaust note will become more raw and you will hear alot more deeper tone.. and wut i have been told maaaaaany times is when im doing little runs up and down streets/freeways, that my tip gets full of blue flame.. and im runnin hks down to invidia cat back...

i can shoot fire out of my exhaust:banana:........ but definitely will back fire alot. i got almost the basic set up.... good choice in up/down pipe. you will be happy with the tone of your car(turbo spool is great!)

i just got an apexi catback and im running an up and down pipe. it sounds really nice, i personally like it. it gives it a nice deep, throaty rumble. when i was at a stop light yesterday, a cop compared my exhaust note to what a harley davidson sounds like hahahah.

ya its not going to be as severe but it still will be a bit lower then the gas mileage he had before with stock dp/up. i noticed a drop in gas mileage(not extreme) < i tried to keep in the low rpms for one fill up.

its not really that major to mess things up i guess...... maybe when you start upgrading your turbo and stuff then you going to need a engine management system.
