ok ive got a ba xr6, only performance mod on it at the moment is a typhoon intake set up with a K&N filter. im looking at buying either a flash tuner or a full exhaust system (4490-high flow cat-redback catback). on my car which of these two choices would give me the best performance increase, the choice will be one or the other and i will most likely not buy the other in the future.
as i said above only current performance mod is typhoon intake with k&n filter. thanks

best go for the exhaust then, no real point getting it tuned with the mods you got.

Full exhaust or tuning a stock car? Exhaust hands down id say.

Mods, then tune. No point tuning, then modding. Because then you will need to re-tune for you mods.

if your only going to do one and not the other, a tune will unlock more power than the exhaust.... plus youll gain fuel economy at the same time.
if you want noise too, then just replace your muffler with a hotdog.... best of both worlds....

well thats the thing i know im gonna be tempted to get a tune later on, and if i get a tune now ill be tempted to get a exhaust system later on
 , im gonna stick with the exhaust. plus i spent 40 mins and was transferred to about 7 different departments, on a phone call to the RTA to check if a full exhaust system was legal for a p plater. and surprisingly for nsw it is!!

Then of co@rse if you get fined you will have to go to court to try and argue that the exhaust isn't a performance modification.

thats the thing i is a performance mod but its not classified as a "significant" performance mod, according to the RTA a significant performance mod will require an engineers certificate. ive called up my insurance company and once i get it down im making them make a note of the fact that it is legal for me to drive.
this is what my loop hole law states: these are restricted vehicle guide lines for p plater in NSW (c) that has had any substantial modification made to the engine of the vehicle to increase the performance of the vehicle (not being a modification made by the manufacturer of the vehicle in the course of manufacture of the vehicle). on the website a similar point in a different section (easy to get to)stats "a engine performance modification that requires an engineers certificate"
