The MREV2 is great, but it won't do much for his non-revup.

Lol. While I'm sure a tune/retune would help, I'm not sure if its worth all that money haha. I actually have an MREV2 on my non-revup (got a new one for free ) and did feel a performance bump, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it unless you want to squeeze out every little HP you can. Another retune might help, but I don't think it warrants the $180 to do it .

Yeah, heat soak is killer in states like ours. I'm running a furookie intake which is a very clean, good looking, polished intake, but obviously is killing my power. Thinking of buying a setup similar to yours for my daily driving, and just swapping to the furookie for shows and stuff.

If I were to get a Z-Tube, Spacer, MREV2, ART pipes, exhaust either all in one shot or piece by piece, am I going to need a tune at some point or is an ECU reset enough?

Cheers.

You'll definitely need a tune after the ART pipes. You can get by with just resetting the ECU with the other mods.

Yeap thats the only thing that I dont like about it and it is pricey. Is not worth paying $240 and then end up using the z tube instead of the metal piping.
