Does anyone know if this is likely to be an issue with b14/n15.

the N14 and N15 crossmembers are pretty similar from memory, so i'd suggest so.

FYI My clearance to the crossmember has issues on one of the primaries further to the front of the car, then the flange for the B-pipe fouls the crossmember

Very interested in a dyno. Do you plan to get it dynoed? I am guessing so.....

well had the car tuned today
changes were an upgrade to 3" exhaust, and ASP headers.

end result: 1hp less peak power

was a bit surprised to make no more power in the top end (6000+), but made some good gains between 5000-6500rpm so it wasnt a total waste of money.

i'm not sure if there is an issue with my setup, or my previous header/exhaust combo was just really good to start with, but yeah, lots of money for no gain up top =

I'm really hoping that the intake or cam gear settings (currently +2.5/-2.5) are bottling it up.

if you have a set of x-force headers, and a 2.5" exhaust, dont bother upgrading if you have a similar setup is the motto I guess...
