Having a Big Boy system helps with tuning ;)

i know its not a boss.... but i have an X-force exhaust on my EL, and while it sounds awesome, the weld quality was quite average as its a month old and needs to have both pipes welded 3/4 of the way around them as they are split.

It sits there and types in the new fuel and spark tavles for you.

I think whar punktured is getting at is, that you can get better results with the big boy system.

From what I've seen personally and heard from others (tuners) it seems to be the case. Again it's proven on the track to be the best exhaust system you can get for the BOSS.

Well, that's not making tuning easier, it just allows you to make more power. Having a wideband o2 or data-logging capability could make tuning easier, not the type of exhaust.

I agree, poor choice of words by punktured maybe.

ive still never heard a big boy system.
data_mine or anyone else that has one, any chance of a sound clip from outside the car?

there isnt that much information about the difillipo systems on the net so whats the average price on one etc
do they only come in twin 3?

I meant how I said it :) The Big Boy system doesn't offer more power, it changes the way it's tuned. I gained 1rwkw going from a twin 2.5" Berklee system to the Big Boy. I can't exactly remember what Chris from Bluepower told me but he said it makes tuning easier. I'll ask him again this week when i see him cos it was too long ago when he told me the reason :/
