    extractors are pointless given the expense. A good 2.25 or 2.5" exhaust gives quite good gains. Dont expect it to be a rocket ship but yeah. certainly are gains to be had. U at least have to do it to unleash that VR6 sound!

    exhaust is ok - remove suitcase and resonator - bigger pipe, rear muffler - put up with the sub2500rpm noise - and adds a few hp and torque (if you think a few $100's is ok then it is worth it) but...
    extractors not worth it for the money

    I don't understand why extractords don't do to much Is
    it because the standered manufolds are very good??
    coz most 4 cylinder cars you get pretty good gains

    look into jetex systems. they are designed to be a performance exhaust without too much droning.
    I just put a 2.5" jetex system on my car. and im very impressed with it. Altho there are a few strange design quirks. But it certainly works. There was a writeup on the 12v mk4 jetex system going round the net somewhere that had it making the most power out of about 10 aftermarket systems they tested. try googling it maybe

    this is what mine looks like.

    it costs about $550US plus shipping. so aroud $1kAUD id guess
    I think there is a company selling them locally for about $1200AUD.
    I got mine as a factory second direct from the US distributor. It has a slight scratch on one of the tips. But it sits under the rear valance so who gives a toss. Saved me a $100
